Regenerating drylands in response to a changing climate
2019
International Institute of Rural Reconstruction (IIRR) | Soria, Giulia
Climate-Smart Villages (CSVs) demonstrate community-based adaptation in agriculture in different agroecological zones in Myanmar. The aim of this presentation “primer” is to provide background information on the agriculture, livelihoods, nutrition, gender, and climate change context of each CSV in its regional context and present processes for outreach and “outscale” of CSV innovations. Water is scarce in the dry zone with ongoing priorities for human and livestock use. The rich agrobiodiversity in the central drylands of Myanmar can be characterized as climate-smart; conservation through productivity enhancement and sustainable use are high priorities for proponents of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA).
