Eight Lessons Learned: Inputs for policy considerations in developing resilience against climate risks for small scale farmers in semi-arid regions
How can a climate change adaptation program for small scale farmers maximize its effectiveness and impact?
This report outlines eight lessons learned which has helped Development Research Communication and Services Centre (DRCSC) design and implement an Adaptation Fund sponsored and NABARD supported climate change adaptation project in 40 villages of Purulia and Bankura districts of West Bengal in between 2015 and 2021.
The lessons, thus, have a strong evidence base, and this report offers practical solutions for climate change practitioners, policymakers, government, and private organizations who want to implement similar climate change adaptation programs in drylands, drought-prone areas, and semi-arid regions of India. The document aims to inform policy recommendations for climate change adaptation programs specifically for small and marginal farmers.
