Resource information
The Participatory Mapping method was applied by Vietnam’s Department of Crop Production and the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security – Southeast Asia in designing the approach for Climate-risk mapping and adaptation planning – CS-MAP. Local knowledge is very important in identifying affected area, the level of climate risks and adaptation measures taking into account local contexts (natural resources, infrastructure and production activities). In CS-MAP, spatial and temporal factors are used in analysis following a 5-step process. This protocol describes the detailed process and methods of participatory risk mapping and adaptation planning in cooperation with local stakeholders, adaptable to the contexts of Cambodia and Bangladesh.
