    Climate change adaptation requires the use of good agricultural, forestry and fisheries practices to meet changing and more difficult environmental conditions. To make sure appropriate information is shared and put into practice, FAO works to build capacities at the national, local and community levels to raise awareness and prepare for climate change impacts. At the government level, the goal is to mainstream climate change strategies and actions in agricultural policies and programmes to reduc e vulnerability and provide local communities with site-specific solutions. FAO'S INTERDEPARTMENTAL WORKING GROUP ON CLIMATE CHANGE sets the context for interdisciplinary technical and policy expertise. Ongoing activities with rural communities and research institutions provides practical information to countries through: global data sets and assessing scientific evidence; analytical tools and models; crop forecasting and impact monitoring; information dissemination on climate change-related ris ks; providing a neutral forum for best practices, negotiations and technical discussions.
