FAO Agricultural Development Economics Policy Brief, No. 47.

The findings of this brief have been adapted from the FAO Agricultural Development Economics Working Paper 22-02 Reducing vulnerability to weather shocks through social protection – Evidence from the implementation of Productive Safety Net Programme (PSNP) in Ethiopia.

This brief suggests that by integrating climate risk management objectives with social protection instruments, it is possible to improve the livelihood conditions of vulnerable groups while reducing their sensitivity to climate-related shocks.
