Abstract

Climate change impacts all human systems including livelihoods of all regions of the world. The livelihoods activities of the sub-Sahara Africa in particular are already affected because of the fact that the region is highly dependent on natural resources, most of which are climate sensitive. This paper reviews attributes of livelihoods impacts of climate risks and provides highlights of adaptation strategies and monitoring tools that are available within the region
