Smallholder farmers contribute significantly to Philippine’s agriculture, yet they are the most vulnerable to climate change. This case study shows that climate change interacts strongly with conflicts to increase vulnerability of farmers. Our most important finding centres on the increasing burden of loss and damage on smallholder farming systems. This study provides useful insight on how the gendered dimensions of climate vulnerability are affected by conflict problems.
