This dataset contains the files produced in the implementation of the “Integrated Monitoring Framework for Climate-Smart Agriculture” in the Cauca Climate Smart Village (Colombia) in February 2018. This monitoring framework developed by CCAFS is meant to be deployed annually across the global net...

adoption of CSA practices and technologies, as well as access to climate information services and their related impacts at household level (and farm level, in selected sites).

This 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 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?
