Storybook: The Year the Cold Didn’t Come
Through this storybook, IFAD seeks to highlight the impact of climate change in Lao PDR, where those affected the most are rural people, especially women, children and ethnic minorities.
In the pursuit of sustainable rural development, the LPDP-II project empowered rural people, enabling them to establish Pasture User Unions and create Community Livestock Pasture Management Plans to address the degradation of pasture resources.
This reduced overgrazing and restored pasture carrying capacity and productivity. The project played a crucial role in facilitating inclusive policy dialogue that led to the adoption of a revised Pasture Law.
