With current climate change projections, these issues will only grow. Eliminating poverty requires new models that empower people to survive and even thrive in the face of changing environments and weather-related incidents.

Organised by BRAC Social Innovation Lab, the 2016 Frugal Innovation Forum will look at innovations in climate change, disaster management, adaptive livelihood and agriculture. We will build on the global discussions at COP21 in Paris and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), but with a clear focus on the priorities for South Asia.

Our goal is action: What do we know about strengthening livelihoods, financial and social protections, and policies to increase resilience for the poorest? How can we build on the regional experiences to accelerate better programs and policies?
