NEED FOR SCENARIOS:A GECAFS PERSPECTIVE
• Consider future uncertainty• Provide story line for key indicators• Define set of plausible futures (min scen set)• Interpret “Changing Socio-economic Conditions”• Blend quantitative & qualitative info• Provide linkages between GECAFS regional studies
& other scales• Provide context for GECAFS regional studies• Provide foundation for linkages across regional studies

GECAFS SCENARIO ATTRIBUTES:PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT (APR 01)
Scales
Temporal: 1-5 yrs (10 max)
Spatial: regional/national with links to GECAFS projects
Key Variables
Food systems: production, availability, accessibility
Socio-econ: pop., econ performance, tech., inst., policies
Bio-phys: climate, water, land

SELECTED RECENT SCENARIO STUDIES
Global Scenario Group: GSG (SEI)
Time: 2050 Regions: 11
Focus: Environment, poverty reduction, human values
Scenarios:
Conventional worlds (market forces, policy reform)
Barbarization (breakdown, fortress world)
Great Transitions: (eco-communalism, new sustainability)

SELECTED RECENT SCENARIO STUDIES cont’d
Special Report on Emissions Scenarios: SRS (IPCC)
Time: 2100 Regions: 4
Focus: Climate change
Scenarios:
A1: Rapid market growth, economic & cultural globalization
A2: Self-reliance & cultural identity preserved, fragmented development
B1: Similar to A1 but global solutions for sustainability
B2: Local sustainability solutions to soc-econ & env issues

SELECTED RECENT SCENARIO STUDIES cont’d
MA Proto-scenarios
Time: about +50 yrs Regions: ?
Focus: Derived from GSG, SRES, etc.
Scenarios:
1: Market driven globalization, trade liberalization, institutional modernization
2: Like 1 but sustaining ecosystems policies in place
3: Developed world: shift to sustainability. Developing world: Poverty reduction, sustability emphasized
4. Fragmented development: preserve regional econ & local culture
5. Elites fortress (national or local), poverty outside

SUGGESTIONS FOR DEVELOPING
GECAFS SCENARIOS
• Firm up GECAFS scenario attributes
• Inventory of existing scenarios sets
• Appraise existing scenarios w.r.t. GECAFS scenario attributes
• Consult with GECAFS regional projects
• Develop GECAFS scenarios report

GECAFS SCENARIO ISSUES
• Issues of vulnerability difficult to identify in groups that do not have income
• Estimate degree of dependence on local natural resources – most vulnerable group
• Mismatch in scales
• Data on institutions likely to be missing or not well recorded
• Cultural influences on food demand unrecorded
• Very important to understand the quality of data
