Adaptation at Scale in Semi-Arid Regions
The Adaptation at Scale in Semi-Arid Regions (ASSAR), is a five-year research project (March 2014–December 2018) supported by Department for International Development, DFID and the Canadian IDRC (International Development Research Centre) that aimed to improve adaptive livelihoods for vulnerable groups by better understanding the enablers and barriers to widespread and transformative adaptation at multiple governance scales. ASSAR was part of the CARIAA (Collabora ve Adapta on Research Initiative in Africa and Asia) program.
