Climate Change and Food Insecurity: Institutional Barriers to Adaptation of Marginal Groups in the Far-Western Region of Nepal

Climate change impacts and adaptations on health of Internally Displaced People (IDP): An exploratory study on coastal areas of Bangladesh

“…Similarly, the financial crisis is one of the main obstacles for the IDPs in Batiaghata and Koyra areas because most of the respondents are working as day labor, a rickshaw puller, farmers, etc. Besides, Bishokarma and Sharma (2013) and Uittenbroek et al (2013) summarized that both the formal and informal forms of social, economic, cultural, technical, physical and institutional obstacles reduce the capacity also increase the vulnerabilities. All of these factors ultimately hinder the adaptive capabilities to climate change, and all the discussed issues coincide with the findings of this research.…”

“…On the other hand, the diverse forms of obstacles, such as social, economic, environmental, and institutional barriers, damage the potentiality of adaptation and accelerate the vulnerability ( Bishokarma and Sharma, 2013 ). Several studies ( Runhaar et al., 2012 ; Monwar et al., 2018 ) identified that a lack of political will, lack of coordination among different stakeholders, scarcity of financial allocation, limited resources, and lack of awareness are considered as obstacles to sustainable adaptation.…”

Survey data on climate change adaptation and barriers to adoption among smallholder farmers in Nepal

“…Climate change is evident and has already impacted smallholder agriculture in the province [3] . Most of the districts in the province are chronically food insecure [4] , and climatic change has further exacerbated food insecurity [5] . This dataset captures farmers' resilience, adaptation, and barriers to climate change adaptation in smallholder agriculture in the province and could inform adaptation policy.…”
