"The book has two parts. The first is drawn from literature review on some key principles that delve on communicating climate change. While the principles are for climate change in general, the authors situated these principles in the agriculture context. The second part is drawn from the completed project of the authors co-funded by PhilRice and the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture, and Food Security on integrating climate change in high school curriculum. The project was executed with and fully supported by the Department of Education. This book is part of the project “Development of Agriculture TecVoc High Schools Offering Crops Production as Key Information Hubs on Climate Change- Ready Rice Production Technologies for Improved Agricultural Productivity” funded by the DA - Bureau of Agricultural Research."
