Dichotomy or continuum? A global review of the interaction between autonomous and planned adaptations
Adaptation to climate change is often conceptualized as a dichotomy, with responses being either planned (formal and structured) or autonomous (organic and self-organized, often known as “everyday adaptation”). Recent literature on adaptation responses has highlighted the existence and importance of the interplay between autonomous and planned adaptation, but examination of this interaction has been limited to date. We use a global database of 16…
Effective domestic climate policies to protect small island states
A global assessment of actors and their roles in climate change adaptation
An assessment of the global progress in climate change adaptation is urgently needed. Despite a rising awareness that adaptation should involve diverse societal actors and a shared sense of responsibility, little is known about the types of actors, such as state and non-state, and their roles in different types of adaptation responses as well as in different regions. Based on a large n -structured analysis of case studies, we show that, although …
Building Resilience in Jamaica’s Farming Communities
Rural farmers, especially those with limited resources, are on the frontline of the climate crisis. In the Caribbean, vulnerability of agri-food systems to climatic disturbances is recognized, but empirical evidence detailing effective adaptation strategies remains patchy. In Jamaica, a combination of challenges—ranging from diminishing availability of arable land and stagnant agricultural innovation to the marginalization of small-scale farming …
Place-based capacity building to enhance resilience in tropical countries
Agroecology as a transformative approach to tackle climatic, food, and ecosystemic crises
Towards more sustainable responses to natural hazards and climate change challenges via transformative adaptation
Agro‐climate services and drought risk management in Jamaica
For many generations, Caribbean smallholder farmers have used traditional knowledge to manage drought impacts. However, patterns of increased climate variability increasingly challenge traditional drought management practices, creating livelihood insecurities and uncertainties. Climate Information Services (CIS) have been promoted as an agile risk management strategy to help farmers negotiate challenges of increased climate extremes. Yet, despite…
The ambiguous impacts of alternative livelihoods on fisher wellbeing in a closed access fish sanctuary in Port Antonio, Jamaica
Alternative livelihood programs are a central feature of contemporary conservation planning that aim to aid efforts to reduce pressure on natural resources and avoid, minimize, or mitigate the impacts of conservation on the wellbeing of local stakeholders. Evidence of the effectiveness of these programs is, however, decidedly mixed. This research examines the relationship between livelihoods, conservation, and wellbeing among nearshore fishers in…
Building back better' in the Caribbean
In a region beset by serial disasters, resilient recovery from hazardous events is not just a worthy goal, it is also an imperative. The Caribbean Resilience and Recovery Knowledge Network (CRRKN) was set up in November 2019 with funding from the Global Challenges Research Fund in the United Kingdom to encourage knowledge exchange and learning between researchers, policymakers, and practitioners, to generate a research agenda, and to promote more…
A systematic global stocktake of evidence on human adaptation to climate change
An assessment of factors influencing awareness, access and use of agro-climate services among farmers in Clarendon, Jamaica
Precarious livelihoods
Precarity has not been applied in the context of fisheries‐based work, even as working conditions in fisheries are emerging to be a real issue. There has been limited analysis of fish work outside the media spotlight or how changing ecological and biophysical conditions (e.g. climate change and its effects) intersect with poor working conditions. We use insights from fieldwork along the southwest coast of Jamaica, to ask the following questions: …
Environmental change and the livelihood resilience of coffee farmers in Jamaica
Climate Change, Drought, and Jamaican Agriculture
The purpose of this study is to reach a basic understanding of drought and climate change in southwestern Jamaica through an integration of local knowledge and perception of drought and its physical characteristics manifested in remotely sensed precipitation and vegetation data. Local knowledge and perception are investigated through a survey of sixty farmers in St. Elizabeth Parish and physical characteristics of drought are examined through sta…
