Abstract: |
Prior to this project, the impacts of climate change on the local livelihoods, commodities, and the landscapes in West Kalimantan have not yet been studied. This project aims to fill the gap by assessing the vulnerability of agriculture-based livelihood to changing climate in the seven districts, namely: Bengkayang, Mempawah, Landak, Sekadau, Sanggau, Sintang, and Kapuas Hulu, through a combination of methods for data collection and analysis, from a participatory approach by conducting Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with the local communities and governments to spatial analyses of hotspots, fire risks, deforestation potentials, and changes in land-use over the past five years. Besides, secondary data was also collected through literature reviews and discussions with key stakeholders in West Kalimantan. |
