Abstract/Description
The Participatory Vulnerability Analysis study was conducted in the 11 villages or barangays in Guinayangan Climate-Smart Village to provide a better understanding of the community and inform the project of the conditions and factors that affect their vulnerability to climate change impacts. This in turn will inform appropriate programs and actions that the community can carry out to prepare them cope with impacts and increase resiliency.
Specifically, the PVA has the following objectives: 1. Establish (with the community) the livelihood conditions in the village; 2. Determine community’s perception of changes in climate, its impacts on their livelihood and other factors/drivers; 3. Determine and establish small farmers’ level of exposure to climate risks; and 4. Conduct an in-depth analysis of climate-change related risks faced by farmers, existing coping mechanisms, possible adaptation measures; and perceived interventions for increasing their adaptive capacities.
