1) Livelihoods and food security are threatened by climate change as it can undermine people's capabilities, assets, and activities required for living as well as disrupt food availability, access, and use. 2) Sustainable livelihoods focus on building on existing community and individual assets of the poor rather than just meeting needs. 3) Food security exists when people have reliable physical and economic access to sufficient nutritious food to live healthy lives.
