Recognizing the valuable contributions of the agriculture sector to achieving emission reductions in Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), many countries in Asia and Pacific included one or more actions in the agriculture sector in their latest NDCs. The Global Methane Pledge, launched at 26th Conference of the Parties (2021) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and joined by 150 countries, including countries in the Asian region, represents a global momentum for further collective actions for methane emissions reductions, including those from agriculture. The present project responded to the need to improve sustainable development and food security through enhanced country capacity to implement adaptation and mitigation actions across agricultural sectors. -
ProjectStrengthening Country Capacities to Implement Climate Action through Enhanced Tools and Knowledge Sharing - GCP/GLO/998/GER 2019

This landmark decision officially acknowledges the significance of countries’ agriculture sectors in adapting to and mitigating climate change. It also recognizes that to achieve greater results, it is necessary to combine scientific and technical negotiations with exchanges on how to facilitate implementation. A number of tools for climate change adaptation and mitigation in agricultural sectors are of mandatory use by most international finance institutions and multilateral development banks, when designing and proposing new investments and projects concerning agriculture sectors. However, most of these tools were developed using methodologies for measuring greenhouse gas emissions issued by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and will soon become obsolete, owing to the refinement of these methodologies in May 2019. In addition, negotiators and stakeholders involved in the KJWA process call for ad hoc digested information related to the different topics covered by the decision. This information should also be available in French and Spanish, to ensure wider access to the information by more technical staff within the different ministries working at the nexus of agriculture and climate change.
