No results found.The Assessments of Climate Change Impacts and Mapping of Vulnerability to Food Insecurity under Climate Change to Strengthen Household Food Security with Livelihoods’ Adaptation Approaches (AMICAF) is a project supported by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) that aims to assist developing countries in climate change assessment and adaptation to improve food security. The AMICAF Project started in October 2011 with a budget of US$ 2.5 million and is implemented in the Philippines and Per u. -
Book (series)Evaluation of the project “Strengthening the adaptive capacity and resilience of rural communities using micro watershed approaches to climate change and variability to attain sustainable food security in Cambodia”
Project code: GCP/CMB/036/LDF GEF ID: 4434
2021Also available in:
No results found.Cambodia is among the Least Developed Countries that continue to struggle with serious environmental issues, among which are climate change, water resources and land degradation. The project, implemented from 2014 to 2020, contributed to build the adaptive capacity of rural communities and reduce their vulnerability to climate change through micro-watershed management and climate resilient agriculture practices through interventions at national, sub-national and community levels. It was designed to address barriers at all levels (local to national) stemming from lack of awareness, knowledge, understanding and capacity concerning climate change adaptation and the absence of alternative livelihoods, particularly affecting rural women. The evaluation found that the project activities made some important steps in contributing to reducing vulnerability and increasing resilience for climate change adaptation in the pilot communes. While the project managed to implement many of the outputs, a number of issues and delays limited the effectiveness on-the-ground of this innovative yet ambitious project. -
ProjectImproving Food Security for Vulnerable Communities in Small Island Developing States through Improved Anticipation and Management of Climate Risks - GCP/GLO/726/ITA 2021
Also available in:
No results found.Small Island Developing States (SIDS) share a range of economic and sustainable development challenges, including low availability of resources, small but rapidly growing populations, remoteness and a susceptibility to weather and climate extremes. The effects of climate change, in particular, such as increasing temperature and rainfall variability, greater frequency of extreme weather events and a rise in sea levels, are expected to affect human health and safety, agricultural production and, ultimately, food security. The project aimed to advance the integration of agricultural sectors into national climate change priorities, in particular the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), in an effort to ensure sustainable and resilient domestic food production and food security and nutrition for the most vulnerable communities, including women and young people. In particular, the project worked towards improving the capacities of the target countries to ( i ) use analytical techniques to assess risks, vulnerabilities and impacts of climate change in the agricultural sectors and (ii) create enabling policy environments to mainstream climate change, resilience and food security concerns and to undertake climate actions.
