solutions to the mind map. If participants are
struggling then rephrase the -ve impact statements

Devidethegroup into smaller groupsaccordingto age
and gender – spend a short while deciding with the
group which sub-groups will work for them. Subgroup
to identify all households, addinghousehold heads
(male, female, child headed ect) onto maps of the
village. These householdwould then beplaced ona
wealthgroup through discussion
Explain that this is done
becausedifferentgroupings
are focused somewhat
differently –different things
are important or difficult for
women than men for

Risk, hazard and
vulnerability
After presenting the slide – what makes us vulnerable
and discussing some of the aspects such as access to
resources, seasonality of access and food availability,
landentitlements, water etc,and also discussinghow
things arechanging dueto CC (so reduction in
availability, increased hazards and the impact of
these):
a.In each small group participants name the most
