Resumen
Descripción
The EX-ACT Value Chain tool (EX-ACT VC), developed in 2016, covers value chains for crops, livestock, fisheries, and aquaculture. EX-ACT VC methodology provides both a quantified socio-economic appraisal (at both the micro- and at the meso-levels (i.e. by agent, by stage and by sector)), and an environmental carbon-balance appraisal (climate mitigation, adaptation and resilience).
Designed for multi-impact appraisal, the tool provides performance assessments for value chains in the following areas: (i) climate mitigation (GHG emissions, carbon footprint, economic return of climate mitigation), (ii) climate resilience, (iii) socio-economic performances (value added, income and employment generated), and other environmental factors (such as water use and energy use). These can be applied for either the current chain scenario, or for assessing an upgraded scenario
