Detailed analysis linking gender roles and gender-based differences in land ownership to men and women's differential views of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices and their willingness to change activities. Also notes gender-based inequalities in access to information. Qualitative and quantitative methods used at field level in this study are relevant methods for identifying gender issues in the scoping and appraisal of adaptation options.

This research report defines the Underground Taming of Floods for Irrigation (UTFI) concept, an approach for co-managing floods and droughts at the river basin scale with a potential to address climate change adaptation and mitigation and disaster risk reduction challenges globally. UTFI involves strategic recharge of aquifers upstream during periods of high flow, thereby preventing local and downstream flooding, and simultaneously providing additional groundwater for irrigation during the dry season for livelihood improvement. Three key stages in moving UTFI from the concept stage to mainstream implementation are discussed. 

This report highlights how investments in natural capital present some of the most economically viable and socially inclusive adaptation and resilience strategies in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS). It provides a reflection on how to prioritize natural capital when planning for adaptation, making decisions and financing it.

This project report presents an assessment of institutional dimensions of adaptation to climate change in the livestock sector lead through mixed methods approach. The International Livestock Research Inistitute analysed two levels: assessment of overall institutional system operating within a particular landscape and assessment of one or more particular governance mechanisms. This case provides elements to have in mind on insitutional aspects when planning for adaptation in the watershed level.

Analysis of the drivers of adoption of agricultural practices that can decrease the vulnerability of agro-pastoralists to climate change in the Borena zone of the Oromia Region in Ethiopia. This case study provides useful information and ideas when laying the ground for and preparing adaptation interventions, especially in the livestock sector. Results suggest that better local institutions lead to changes in key household-level characteristics, which positively affect adoption of sustainable practices.

This publication identifies key elements needed to effectively implement policy measures for crop diversification targeted at farmers (both women and men) and ethnic minorities in low and upland regions in in Cambodia, Lao PDR and Vietnam. It provides useful elements for the implementation of adaptation interventions.

This booklet proposes four alternative scenarios of the future of the Pacific food systems (including fisheries and forests, trade, affordability and consumption, and public health), essential information for policy-makers, to develop policies that enhance resilience and strengthen adaptation to climate change among fishers and farmers in the Pacific region.

This meta-synthesis of national climate change adaptation plans, policies and processes spans twelve countries at various stages of adaptation planning and implementation, in three priority regions for CCAFS: West Africa, East Africa and South Asia. The scope of this review focused primarily on climate adaptation in the agriculture sector, but also included consideration of related sectors, such as water, forests and land use.

This book documents and analyses specific features of the scientific, institutional, policy and funding Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) landscape in West Africa. It provides relevant information that could guide the definition of the Economic Community of West African States' (ECOWAS) Framework for CSA Intervention, Funding, Monitoring and Evaluation.

The fast, easy-to-use, and cost-effective 5Q approach aims to simplify monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) methods, in order to improve transparency, mutual accountability, and the effectiveness of research and development projects. It revolutionizes Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) in development, ensuring mutual accountability and integration of stakeholders in a new way.
