Change

Project Background
• Study is part of the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change,
Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS)
• Little existing research on intra-household differences in climate change
effects, adaptation strategies
• This study aimed to enhance the understanding of gendered climate change
perceptions, impacts, and adaptation and coping strategies within selected
CCAFS sites
• Better understand how climate change impacts women and men, separately
and jointly, in terms of their vulnerabilities, well-being and assets
3
Data pooled
The survey included sections on:
• Agricultural and livestock decision-making
• Awareness and adoption of climate smart agriculture practices
• Perceptions of climate changes
• Climate shocks and coping
• Personal values
• Access to information sources
Why do a “Gender and Climate Change” Study?
• Households do not pool all resources or make decisions as single unit
• Men and women have differential levels of access to various household
resources
• Men and women have different preferences for how household resources
are used
• Men and women make different decisions on the allocation of resources
among household members
• As an intra-household survey, this survey targeted male and female
decision-makers in the same household
• Note that these differences have important implications for both
production and consumption decisions

Site description
Nyando Wote Rakai
Climate Climate
change/variability;
annual r/f 900-1200;
droughts, floods
increased with negative
impacts on agriculture
Characterized by high
variability in annual
and seasonal rainfall
that amounts to 520
mm per year
Rakai has variable
rainfall, high to low
(>1400 - <1000);
increasing climate
variability ; persistent
droughts & vulnerable
dry land
Socio-economic High poverty rates,
leads to labor shortages
due to poor health and
nutrition status
majority of them
being smallholder
farmers
Land ownership
contentious as few
people hold land
titles.
Farming and
Livelihood
Mixed rain fed crop-
livestock and largely
subsistence farming
Rain-fed farming
systems comprise a
blend of crop-
livestock systems
Rain fed annual and
perennial smallholder
farming systems

• Do men and women
participate in
different types of

• Does it vary across
crops?
• See some patterns in types
of decisions, but depends
on crops
• Men and women
participate in many

Key Messages
-Once aware, women seem more likely to adopt these CSA
practices
-Wide variation in access to information
-Seems to suggest that both men and women are making
adaptations, but mainly farm based and input related
-Some patterns in terms of agricultural decisionmaking, but it varies
by crop
-Participation by men and women in most agricultural decisions

Understanding gender and climate change in the East African Region. A 2014 study by CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) and International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)

  • 1. 1 Understanding Gender and Climate Change Edidah Ampaire, IITA Joash Mango, ICRAF And others from IFPRI CIAT ILRI May 14, 2014
  • 2. 2 Project Background • Study is part of the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) • Little existing research on intra-household differences in climate change effects, adaptation strategies • This study aimed to enhance the understanding of gendered climate change perceptions, impacts, and adaptation and coping strategies within selected CCAFS sites • Better understand how climate change impacts women and men, separately and jointly, in terms of their vulnerabilities, well-being and assets
  • 3. 3 Data pooled The survey included sections on: • Agricultural and livestock decision-making • Awareness and adoption of climate smart agriculture practices • Perceptions of climate changes • Climate shocks and coping • Personal values • Access to information sources
  • 4. Why do a “Gender and Climate Change” Study? • Households do not pool all resources or make decisions as single unit • Men and women have differential levels of access to various household resources • Men and women have different preferences for how household resources are used • Men and women make different decisions on the allocation of resources among household members • As an intra-household survey, this survey targeted male and female decision-makers in the same household • Note that these differences have important implications for both production and consumption decisions
  • 6. Site description Nyando Wote Rakai Climate Climate change/variability; annual r/f 900-1200; droughts, floods increased with negative impacts on agriculture Characterized by high variability in annual and seasonal rainfall that amounts to 520 mm per year Rakai has variable rainfall, high to low (>1400 - <1000); increasing climate variability ; persistent droughts & vulnerable dry land Socio-economic High poverty rates, leads to labor shortages due to poor health and nutrition status majority of them being smallholder farmers Land ownership contentious as few people hold land titles. Farming and Livelihood Mixed rain fed crop- livestock and largely subsistence farming Rain-fed farming systems comprise a blend of crop- livestock systems Rain fed annual and perennial smallholder farming systems

  • 18. 18 Key Messages -Once aware, women seem more likely to adopt these CSA practices -Wide variation in access to information -Seems to suggest that both men and women are making adaptations, but mainly farm based and input related -Some patterns in terms of agricultural decisionmaking, but it varies by crop -Participation by men and women in most agricultural decisions
