How climate compatible are livelihood adaptation strategies and development programs in rural Indonesia?
Climate Risk Management, November 2015, doi:10.1016/j.crm.2015.11.001
This paper presents a multi-stakeholder, participatory planning process designed to screen and prioritise rural livelihood adaptation strategies against nine climate compatible development (CCD) criteria. The process integrated three principles of adaptation pathways: interventions should be i) ‘no regrets’ and maintain reversibility to avoid mal-adaptation; ii) address both proximate and underlying systemic drivers of community vulnerability; and iii) linked across spatial scales and jurisdictional levels to promote coordination. Using examples of two rural sub-districts in Indonesia, this paper demonstrates the process and resulting CCD strategies.
