Book (stand-alone)Governance challenges for disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation convergence in agriculture - Guidance for analysis
Governance and policy support - Discussion paper
2019Also available in:
No results found.This discussion paper aims to help practitioners work in a more informed and politically sensitive way to integrate actions on disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) in agriculture. It illustrates some typical governance and political economy-related barriers that may hamper convergence or integration of DRR and CCA actions. It also provides guidance for in-depth governance analysis, putting the analytical focus at national and subnational levels, while considering the international context as an important factor for convergence. The FAO Governance and Policy Support Discussion Paper series provides perspectives and concepts on critical governance and policy issues that are relevant to FAO work at country, regional and global levels. Discussion Papers are often based on work in progress, and we welcome suggestions and ideas by email at: governance-support@fao.org. The series is available at: http://www.fao.org/policy-support/resources/ -

Also available in:
No results found.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. -
