Integrating climate change adaptation in development planning in Morocco - NAP-GSP.
What is the process to formulate and implement National Adaptation Plans (NAPs)? How can it be used to reduce Morocco’s vulnerability to climate change and integrate climate change adaptation into ongoing development planning processes? How can decision makers include the gender lens to build more inclusive and more effective initiatives? What does Morocco’s current road map for conducting its NAP process look like, and how can it be further enhanced for effective delivery?
These were just some of the questions discussed at a workshop held in Marrakesh, 17-20 April 2017. The workshop was co-hosted by GIZ, UNDP and UNITAR, and supported through the GIZ Environment and Climate Governance project, and aimed at developing and strengthening the technical expertise of Morocco climate action focal points from several departments.

Women paying the health cost of the climate crisisIIED
The impacts of climate change result in both economic and non-economic losses and damages. While economic impacts often receive attention through policy and programming, the non-economic losses remain largely invisible and unaddressed, particularly in climate finance.
The presentation by IIED principal researcher Ritu Bharadwaj, from an online event in March 2024, focuses on the loss and damage faced by women battling drought, debt bondage and migration in Beed, India.
The presentation examines how women are disproportionately affected by climate change, looking at the connections between climate-induced droughts and debt bondage, and significant impacts on women's physical and mental health – leading to drastic health decisions.
It introduces the innovative C-CIQ methodology, which is a comprehensive approach allowing for in-depth assessment of climate change impacts, encompassing not only physical and economic aspects but also the social, cultural and psychological wellbeing of individuals and communities.
The C-CIQ methodology, with its emphasis on simplicity, replicability and clarity, aims to provide a framework for quantifying non-economic loss and damage through composite indices, making it a valuable tool for practitioners and policymakers in diverse contexts.

Adaptability of peri-urban agricultural workers towards resilienceIIED
This case study highlights the way that women working in peri-urban agriculture in India have to adapt to changing circumstances in order to sustain themselves and their families.
It was produced by Siddharth Agarwal, Kanupriya Kothiwal, Shabnam Verma and Sampurna Kundu of the Urban Health Resource Centre, India.
Conclusions include agricultural work being one of the major forms of livelihood for peri-urban workers. Many peri-urban workers chose this form of work because they already had the skills from their native rural farms.
Women find agricultural work convenient because of its self-paced nature and because farms are mostly close to where they live. Food security is another benefit, as many women are able to procure vegetables and food grains from their farming work.
Peri-urban women workers are resilient, adapting to an ever-changing peri-urban ecosystem and often pursuing an additional livelihood in seasons when agricultural work is not available. Their strategy of forming links with more than one employer offering different forms of work is key to this resilience.
They are also preparing themselves for a future when farms will be sold to developers and builders, and express anxiety about the uncertainty of sustaining agriculture work in the future.
The adaptability and resilience shown by the workers can be tailored to other situations and promoted among vulnerable urban women workers.

Stitching their trajectories with determination: stories from Indore, IndiaIIED
Many women in Indore work as informal home-based garment workers. This case study demonstrates their commitment to investing in equipment and learning new skills in order to contribute to the family income.
Behind closed doors lies a vast segment of largely invisible women and girls working in India’s flourishing garment industry.
Women working from home account for about 14% of urban employment in India. In low- and middle-income countries, outsourced garment production thrives on account of cheap labour to keep the levels of production high and costs low.
Through pursuing sewing, women can overcome the limitations of little or no education or formal training. Most women stitchers enhance their skills through experience. This helps them get regular and progressively higher paying piece-rate work.

The document summarizes a study on the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on wild meat use and perceptions in communities near the Dja Faunal Reserve in Cameroon. The study found that the pandemic increased difficulties in accessing schools, income, travel, customers, work and food for many communities. It also found that wild meat consumption remained important despite Covid-19 risks. Most respondents disagreed with proposals to close wild meat markets due to livelihood dependencies and a lack of alternatives. The conclusion was that pandemic impacts on livelihoods seemed more concerning than health risks from wild meat, and findings could help policymaking support communities.
Drivers of wild meat consumption steph brittainIIED
Dr. Stephanie Brittain conducted research on the drivers of wild meat consumption in Cameroon through a literature review and fieldwork interviewing 542 people in four villages. Key findings included: 1) availability and affordability are primary drivers of wild meat consumption, while health benefits and culture are secondary; 2) consumption rates varied between villages and demographics; and 3) preferences for wild meat centered on taste and ease of access, while avoidance was due to taste, health, and tradition. The research provided insights into designing alternative food projects that consider local tastes, traditions, and access to markets and resources.

This presentation was made by Pauline Zei at a webinar on Wednesday, 2 June that discussed the challenges around, and opportunities for, producer voice and agency in the design and implementation of the new Living Income Differential (LID) in Ghana and the Côte d'Ivoire.
The online event on 'Cocoa producer agency and the living income differential: lessons from civil society organisations' was organised by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED).
Zei is director of Inades-Formation Cote d'Ivoire. She holds a degree in agronomy from the Institut National Polytechnique Félix Houphouët Boigny in Yamoussoukro, specialising in crop protection. Inades-Formation is a network of pan-African associations that works for equitable and sustainable development in Africa.
This was the seventh in a series of events organised under the IIED-led Empowering Producers in Commercial Agriculture (EPIC) project.
EPIC is funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office through its Commercial Agriculture for Smallholders and Agribusiness (CASA) programme, though the views expressed do not necessarily reflect the views of the UK government. CASA seeks to increase economic opportunities for smallholders by demonstrating the commercial viability of businesses with significant smallholder supply chains and attracting more investment into the sector.

Organisational innovations that make community forestry prosperousIIED
This is a presentation by Duncan MacQueen, principal researcher at the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), about the importance of including smallholder producers and producer organisations in sustainable value chains to strengthen local resilience to external shocks.
Macqueen used the example of his work with the Forest and Farm Facility (FFF) program at the FTA Science Conference 2020. The presentation focuses on the role of commercial organisation around accountable finance systems at four tiered levels: local producer groups, regional aggregators and processors, national advocacy federations, international alliances.

The term "governance" covers all the structures and processes aimed at making decisions for a collective entity. It plays a key role in all aspects of development. Women’s voices are consistently under-represented in governance bodies, whether they are public, such as local councils and land allocation committees, or private organisations, such as producer organisations and cooperatives.
In this presentation, researchers from the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) argue that good governance must involve the active participation of women in decision-making. But they found there is limited evidence of what works, and how, in promoting women’s voices across different sectors.
To identify the critical factors that enable local women to effectively participate in public and private governance, the researchers studied projects tackling land rights, climate finance and sustainable markets in three African countries: Tanzania, Ghana and Senegal.
The presenters are law, gender and development specialist Philippine Sutz, an associate in IIED's Natural Resources research group; Emilie Beauchamp, senior researcher in IIED's Strategy and Learning Group; and Anna Bolin, senior researcher in IIED's Natural Resources research group.
