Anticipatory adaptation and the role of decadal climate information in rural African livelihoods systems: lessons from the mid Zambezi valley, Zimbabwe

This study aims to explore the utility of anticipatory adaptation to climate variability and related livelihood sensitivities in rural African contexts using the case of Mbire district situated in the mid-Zambezi valley region of Zimbabwe. The provision of decadal climate information (up to ten years), as part of an anticipatory adaptation package, is at the centre of analysis.
