Their related impacts at household level and farm leve
his framework proposes standard Descriptive Indicators to track changes in:
5 enabling dimensions that might affect adoption patterns,
a set of 5 CORE indicators at Household level to assess perceived effects of CSA practices on Food Security, Productivity, Income and Climate vulnerability and
4 ...
The survey questionnaire is structured around different thematic modules (Demographic, Livelihoods, Food Security, Climate events, Climate Services, CSA practices, Financial Services) connected to standard CSA metrics and the specific indicators.
The framework responds to three main research questions:
Within each CSV community, who adopts which CSA technologies and practices and what are their motivations, enabling/constraining factors?
What are the gender-disaggregated perceived effects of CSA options on farmers’ livelihood (agricultura...
