Bolivia: The Economic Inclusion Programme for Families and Rural Communities (ACCESOS)

The Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Programme (ASAP) piloted talking maps in Bolivia. This innovative tool brings together science and traditional community knowledge to identify key issues and adaptation priorities, giving Indigenous Peoples, women and youth a voice in decision-making.

These maps were used to:

  • raise awareness about climate change;
  • find tailor-made solutions;
  • promote women's inclusion, elevating the gross income of women-headed households;
  • inspire other communities to adopt similar approaches.
