integral part of agricultural development in the most vulnerable areas. This research is done with a goal to improve innovations in agricultural institutions, crop and resource management, role of women, social capital and social networks (Adger, 2003) in these study countries. The study takes into consideration the context variability among and within the countries cases and how best to analyze by identifying elements of an ideal governance framework where adaptation can be optimized. The descriptive frame work for addressing the climate change agenda is given below Figure 1. Figure 1. Conceptual framework for addressing climate change agenda. (Source: - Authors creation for harmonizing objectives and activities of the project) The project aims to generate valuable outputs that will have policy and livelihood impacts. It is also developing a useful information repository to inform policy decisions on critical issues affecting the future of agriculture and livelihoods in the rainfed SAT. For this to happen, a robust approach with reliable and in depth understanding with a minimum set of key information (Aggarwal, et al. 2010, Vincent, 2007). Hence this project pitches for enhanced information from different components of analysis, argumentation and advocacy (Adger and Vincent 2005; Kelly and Adger 2000). The key outputs of the project include, (a) an improved understanding of the climate variability (and other related factors) that may be influencing changes in cropping patterns, crop yields, structures of income and employment, and adaptation-coping strategies of the rural poor in SAT villages; (b) best practices and 8
institutional innovations for mitigating the effects of climate change and other related shocks; and (c) strategies to address socioeconomic problems relating to changing weather patterns and availability of a range of initiatives for their alleviation. Formalizing concepts The framework presented below is developed to analyze the problem and present the research design to assess the situation and identify methods of adaptation (Figure 2). The process will enable us to present policy suggestions to the participating countries to follow-up on.
