Subject Climate change
 
Description The climate change has been recognized by the world community as a potential threat to
environment, ecosystem, and development. The impacts are not spatially similar and Asia’s
rural poor are more challenged of its consequences. ICRISAT with support of ADB have tracked
the climatic trends, identified vulnerable regions to climate change and ascertained the farmer’s
perception through quantitative and qualitative means for deciphering the adaptation strategies
and constraints to adaptation in South Asia (Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka), South East Asia
(Thailand, Vietnam) and China. A comprehensive approach (Q2) was designed to imbibe the
information at different levels of its significance. Climatic analysis to understand the trends in
climate and climate change vulnerability assessment of the regions and sub-regions was carried
and later 22 villages were selected from these vulnerable regions for understanding ground
level realities of climate change impacts and adaptation strategies.
