The document also details the main features and ambitions of the Koronivia Joint Work on Agriculture, as well as the mandates and agriculture-oriented actions that are implemented by the Constituted Bodies or financed by the Financial Mechanism (GEF – GCF), the Adaptation Fund, the Least Developed Countries (LDC) Fund, and the Special Climate Change Fund. The publication not only aims to clarify the KJWA process for Parties and observers, but also foster their engagement and collaboration to better develop, support and implement concrete and practical solutions for climate change adaptation and mitigation.
