Summary:In this paper, we develop a policy and investment framework that can help in tracking climate-resilient actions as part of the development of national-level policies and strategies. We apply this framework to Myanmar’s recently developed and launched Agricultural Development Strategy. We argue that such frameworks are an essential part of developing local capacities to translating climate resilience strategies in the national action and investment plans. Finally, we demonstrate how a food-systems approach could help identify a set of multidimensional drivers at the underlying, intermediate, and immediate levels for decision making and coordination of actions at various levels.
