The study formulated a formulated a plausible future context for the communities by assessing the potential consequences of foreseeable changes in socioeconomic conditions, based on an analysis of development plans ans changes in key climate risks. The team chose a future climate scenario from downscaled climate projections, developed by SEA START future with ''big change'' in the climate pattern as it would better stimulate visualization and discussion. Under the big-change scenario, the team developed temperature and rainfall-based climate indicators to assess the potential impacts of climate change on agriculture and different livelihood groups in the studied communities.
