Based on survey responses, the study examined how pathways of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) practices, tailored to different contexts of Myanmar’s four agroecological regions, contributed to observed changes in health and livelihoods. Livelihood resilience may rely on diversification, including climate smart fruit trees; livestock; and off‐farm incomes, as risk aversion strategies for the rural poor. Analysis of knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) findings indicate that current nutrition education interventions in Myanmar CSVs are inadequate, and will need further improvement for better health and nutrition outcomes.
