Book (stand-alone)Strengthening Capacity for Climate Change Adaptation in Agriculture: Experiences and Lessons from Lesotho 2011
Also available in:
No results found.This publication aims to create awareness and prompt action amongst policy-makers and practitioners to address the impact of climate change (notably changes in temperature and rainfall) to the countrys food security. It serves as a good example of how the ongoing FAO and Government of Lesotho project activities Environment, are complementing identified by the National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) on climate change. It also draws on lessons learnt on strengthening capacity for climat e change adaptation in agriculture at national, district and community level, focusing on selected areas of crops, livestock and forest-based livelihood systems. The publication would be a useful resource to policy-makers, development partners and field practitioners on documenting and identifying viable community-based response and practices in climate change adaptation, and in pointing out opportunities for scaling-up in other parts of the country and region with similar agro-ecological and social context. -

Book (stand-alone)Brief on Fisheries, Aquaculture and Climate Change in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report (IPCC AR5) 2016
Also available in:
No results found.This brief synthesizes the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report’s (AR5) important knowledge on how climate change is already manifesting itself through the aquatic systems, what the future changes may be and their predicted impacts on food and livelihood security, marine and inland fisheries and aquaculture systems, and overviews AR5’s information on implications of climate change and variability for capture fisheries, aquaculture and dependent communities in eight r egions: Africa, Asia, Australasia, Central and South America, Europe, North America, Small Island States and Polar Regions. In this context, adaptation options suggested by the AR5 will be outlined for each. It concludes with a review of knowledge gaps from the fisheries and aquaculture perspective that could benefit from further IPCC efforts.
