Book (stand-alone)Technical reportFAO/IPCC Expert meeting on land use, climate change and food security 2017
Also available in:
No results found.One hundred scientists, economists and policy experts participated in a three-day expert meeting (EM) to engage in a high-level, globally oriented, and multidisciplinary scoping of topics that climate change to land use and food security. The EM was structured around five themes: climate impacts and human-directed drivers of land change and linkages to food security; mitigation and adaptation options; and policies for resource management, smallholder resilience, mitigation and food and nutrition security. The present report offers a comprehensive synthesis of the EM findings and conclusions reflecting the collective view participants and external reviewers. The report is a valuable source for the IPCC above-mentioned Special Report, especially in relation to food security, as well to researchers and policy makers concerned with the policy implication of food security in relation to post-Paris climate action and Agenda 2030. -

There are different possibilities to finance climate change activities. Some are market based, others are not. Within this last category, there is a possibility to launch Payment of Environmental Services PES1. Whatever activities are launched to cope with climate change issues should bring finance, ecosystems protection as well as poverty reduction in developing countries. However it is a complex and difficult path accessing climate change funds, which is also not really tailored for developing countries. Investment agriculture programmes are recognized to be a possible solution to climate change. Appraising their carbon balance is a way to highlight their capacity to cope with climate change issues. Climate change issues should not be seen as a new trend that will imply new conditions for developing countries. It is worth seeing the opportunities that could be brought by integrating climate change policies in the objectives of development.
