Abstract
102 words
The challenge to achieving household food security is a
combination of biological, physical, and social factors. However,
social factors, gender in particular, have received a cursory
attention in adaptation studies. This study argues that proper
assessment of gender factors that can render household food
insecure in times of climate variability, can lead to development
of effective and appropriate adaptation strategies. The study
outlines the gender vulnerability to climate variability and its
implication on the household food security in Malawi. The key
recommendation is therefore to consider gender capabilities
and challenges in developing effective and appropriate
adaptation strategies for ensuring household food security.
