(Proj. AF38) Integrated Assessment of Miombo Region: Exploration of Impacts and Adaptation Options in Relation to Climate Change and Extremes [Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe]

Project Goal To assess vulnerability to climate variability and extreme events in the miombo region in terms of life, livelihoods, land use as a basis for production and livelihoods, and to guide adaptation

Researchers are drawn from the Environment, Forestry, Agriculture, Meteorology, Water, Economic Development Departments and Universities/Research Centers. The sectors involved include FOOD, WATER, LAND USE, LIVELIHOODS and NAPAs

Ten Nationalities Involved Malawi (5) Mozambique (5) Zambia (3) Zimbabwe (5) South Africa (2) Australia (1) China (1) USA (4) Tanzania (2) Lesotho (1)

Decisions to be influenced Agro ecological & silvicultural zoning Local level water resources management planning Extension & outreach programmes in the environmental resources sub- sector

Miombo Network Project AF38 Cluster of Activities

Key analyses & methods Integrated assessment of the ecosystems in the four countries Agricultural and silvicultural zoning GIS for land use planning PRAs (case studies)

News from Trieste Clearer definition & engagement of stakeholders Formulation of relevant socioeconomic scenarios Networking with sister AIACC projects
