Towards a climate change adaptation strategy for coffee communities and ecosystems in the Sierra Madre de Chiapas, Mexico
The overall project goal is to improve food security and farming system resilience of smallholder mixed crop-livestock farmers in East Africa while mitigating climate change through wide-scale adoption of climate-smart agriculture (CSA). The project integrates interdisciplinary approaches, includ...

Increasing Food Security and Farming System Resilience in East Africa through Wide-Scale Adoption of Climate-Smart Agricultural Practices
As part of this CCAFS project we collected various types of data in order to better understand vulnerabilities of smallholder farmers in East Africa to climate change. We collected and integrated interdisciplinary datasets in order to assess the biophysical, agronomic, social and economic realiti...

Playing Out Transformative Adaptation in CCAFS Benchmark Sites in East Africa: "When, Where, How and With Whom?"
This progress report summarizes the key results from the CSV monitoring undertaken in 2018. It focuses on the levels of CSA implementation in the 4 LAM Climate-Smart villages (Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua) and gender-disaggregated perceived effects of CSA practices on households li...
This progress report focuses on the development of GeoFarmer (V1). It describes how we adapted the GeoCitizen application framework and developed new user interfaces as GeoFarmer, for the purpose of using it in the agricultural development projects, and more specific, for the monitoring and evalu...
This framework will support field practitioners in tracking over time, the progress and dynamic changes in adoption of CSA options and their related impacts at household and farm level.

Status of CSA adoption and related impact on farming communities across 8 CSV implementing the CSV monitoring plan in 2018
Adapting to climate risks is central to the goal of increasing food security and enhancing resilience of farming systems in East Africa. We examined farmers’ attitudes and assessed determinants of adaptation using data from a random sample of 500 households in Borana, Ethiopia, Nyando, Kenya, Hoi...

Smallholder farmers’ attitudes and determinants of adaptation to climate risks in East Africa
Small-scale farmers are highly threatened by climate change. Experts often base their interventions to support farmers to adapt to climate change on their own perception of farmers’ livelihood risks. However, if differences in risk perception between farmers and experts exist, these interventions...
