Changing Climate: Changing Lives

The video presents how climate change, which results in extreme weather events all over the world, is affecting those who depend on the weather for their livelihoods, including farmers in Southern Philippines. It shows how the ILO demonstration project is working with local stakeholders to develop innovative financing schemes to help vulnerable populations enhance their production and diversify their sources in order to better cope with climate change impacts. It also talks about supporting the development of an innovative insurance scheme based on weather index to further protect livelihoods of farmers.
