This paper presents a synthesis of diverse experiences of climate-smart villages (CSV) in Southeast Asia. CSVs have leveraged knowledge transfer activities via farmer-to-farmer engagements and roving workshops. They have also assisted in development of national policies where climate-smart agriculture (CSA) and CSVs can be mainstreamed. Policies such as Vietnam’s Nong Thon Moi national rural development program, Myanmar’s Climate-Smart Agriculture Strategy and the Philippine Department of Agriculture systemwide program: Adaptation and Mitigation Initiative in Agriculture, are all significant policy drivers of scaling CSA via CSVs in these countries. An 8-step guide on setting up CSVs has been developed.
