Outline of Final Research Achievements

The objectives of this study are to identify regions and households vulnerable to climate disasters recently worsen by climate change, and to examine the determinants of climate vulnerability in special connection with agricultural production in developing countries. Data was collected in the high flood-risk country, the Philippines, and the high drought-risk country, Senegal. Our results show that most of the experts’ characteristics do not give significant effects on the weight structure of vulnerability index, that the index is determined by multiple factors, that the level of vulnerability is affected by geographical factors in the Philippines and, in contrast, by farm household characteristics in Senegal, and that it is difficult to figure out the simple relationship between vulnerability and resilience.
