Description:
Resilience Assessment is a participatory process allowing local people, differentiated by production system, gender and age, to articulate the rationale underpinning their livelihood strategies. It differs from other planning approaches in that it seeks to explicitly enable and empower local people to explain to those external to their community such as government planners or NGOs staff, the logic of their production strategies in the face of climate variability and change. This toolkit provides an opportunity for local government, CSOs and communities to discuss how local livelihood functions interact, the factors are that constrain their resilience to climate change, and practical ways to build adaptive capacity and long-term resilience.
