Findings from 41 studies selected following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol, mostly from Africa and Asia, suggest that climate change perceptions and adaptation are highly contextual and considerably varied by gender and different intersections. Existing gender role, farmers’ age, education, knowledge, marital status, intra-household power structure, religion, social status and ethnicity were intersecting with gender and climate change perception and adaptation. Apart from gender and intersectionality, access to resources, social network and local institutions are found to be important correlates of adaptation strategies by farmers. While agriculture being feminized, mere technological changes are not conclusive to climate change adaptation rather socio-cultural, structural and political changes in inevitable. Female farmers were tend to be more concerned and fatalistic about climate change which reminds us the urgency of culturally appropriate climate change communication to obtain informed decision regarding climate change. Future climate change research could be more gender transformative by exploring the existing inequalities lying in different intersections of gender rather than highlighting binary gender differences only.","PeriodicalId":47734,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2023-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43988133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fuel subsidies sap governments of funds and contribute to environmental degradation. However, progress on their reduction has been mixed due to weak political and social support for higher prices. Energy affordability has recently shot up the agenda, following a period of sustained energy and broader price inflation, contributing to a resurgence of strikes and other expressions of social grievance. Drawing on empirical experiences across a diverse set of countries – including Chile, France, Indonesia, Iran and Ghana – this paper explores factors shaping the societal and political acceptability of FFSRs. It shows that such measures should be better adapted to the unique political, social and economic fabric of each reforming country or locality. It builds on insights from a small literature on political and social factors shaping FFSR outcome, which emphasize greater risks of social resistance in countries with weak institutions, lower income levels and a history of political instability. It finds that a key element for the success of policy reforms in this area is the ability of policy makers to maintain a broader balance among social, political and industrial interests, regardless of the stage of economic and institutional development.","PeriodicalId":47734,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2023-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44095978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, this study applies the Structural Auto-regression (SVAR) model to estimate the impact of climate change on output and inflation in Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa using monthly data from 2002M01 to 2020M12. The findings reveal that a rise in climate change reduces the real output from its potential level and causes increases in food as well as general consumer prices across the countries. On the one hand, South Africa and Nigeria are estimated to have the most impact. On the other hand, Egypt's real output, food and consumer price inflation are estimated to have the least. Overall, the estimates show that climate change has the greatest impact on food price inflation, followed by general consumer price inflation, and finally real output. One key policy implication of this study's findings is that effective emission reductions that lowers climate change can boost economic growth while also reining in food and consumer price inflation. Thus, suggesting that bringing down climate change significantly can help central banks achieve price and output stability.","PeriodicalId":47734,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2023-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43848542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adaptive strategies are crucial to improve agricultural productivity and secure farmers’ livelihoods. The availability of and access to climate information reinforce the classical adaptive measures adopted by farmers and provide them with opportunities to make informed decisions. This study used an extended Theory of Planned Behaviour to analyze the behavioural determinants of farmers’ intention to use climate information in decision-making. Therefore, data from 714 farmers in Benin were collected using multistage sampling technique. Data were analyzed by employing the PLS method. The results proved the positive influence of Attitude, Subjective Norms and Perceived Control Behaviour respectively on the Intention to use climate forecasts in decision-making in farming. It should however be noted that the impact of Subjective Norms proved to be insignificant. The results also show that it is important to improve farmers beliefs as to the added value of using climate forecasts in their adaptation strategies. This study, therefore, provides a view of the importance of psychological factors in the use of agricultural climate forecasts in developing countries. The findings of this study are relevant for devising adaptive strategies in the agricultural sector.","PeriodicalId":47734,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Development","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2023-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60412082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose here that tipping points (sharp increases) in adaptation costs may emerge as key warming levels are exceeded, with important implications for policymakers and planners. We explore this proposition using selected African agriculture and ecosystem-based livelihoods examples, considering how adaptation responses might progress from a coping phase (with low-cost efforts), through a tipping point into a phase of proactive or planned (‘incremental’) adaptation that requires a sharp increase in adaptation investment, and through a further tipping point into a technology and capital-intensive (‘transformative’) phase requiring a further sharp increase in investment. Tipping points in adaptation costs may result as a series of limits to adaptation are breached, but the associated sharp cost transitions are not well recognized in the literature. Adaptation research could usefully focus on identifying the likely timing of these tipping points and in what sectors they may occur. Emerging analyses of joint mitigation/adaptation response options may need to account for these tipping points.","PeriodicalId":47734,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Development","volume":"15 1","pages":"717 - 722"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43507097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The urgency and scale at which adaptation interventions are required, particularly in vulnerable countries, however, necessitates design and implementation of extensive capacity building programmes at sub-national level as well. Although, many initiatives have been taking place to develop capacities as part of national as well as sub-national level projects and programmes, it is time to reflect and revisit the ways these programmes are designed. Countries are now in the process of preparing and aligning their national programmes on climate action with the goals defined under their respective Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) submitted under the Paris Agreement. Building of capacities at sub-national levels will be crucial to enable innovation in policies and technologies essential to achieve these NDC goals. This viewpoint presents key recommendations emerging from a first-of-its-kind capacity building programme on adaptation implemented for the entire Indian Himalayan Region. It emphasizes on strategies and approaches including the Experiential Learning Cycle approach to augment the effectiveness and efficiency of such programmes at sub-national level for supporting development of climate resilient communities in the long term.","PeriodicalId":47734,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48582401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
