Special issue of Climate Risk Management, 2016

The special issue, entitled ‘Climate Futures and Rural Livelihood Transformation in Eastern Indonesia’ reports a 4 year project in Nusa Tenggara Barat Province, Indonesia, conducted through the Research for Development Alliance in 2010-2014. With colleagues from the University of Mataram, we have written nine papers plus an editorial/synthesis, which describe the project’s approach, process, data, tools and evaluation. Each paper stands alone, but also links sequentially to other papers.
