Challenges in agriculture in Latin America
2018Also available in:
The “Open House” event was professionally facilitated and structured in an interactive and inclusive way, enabling a dialogue between Latin American and Italian institutions to exchange information and knowledge and find common areas of collaboration, in order to develop project ideas to support FAO in fighting hunger by overcoming the new challenges caused by climate change. Moreover, this event provided an opportunity to explore the approach of FAO’s Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) programme, as well as the experiences and the possibilities it offers in this context. The event consisted of a one-day meeting and a field trip at the campus of the University of Tuscia, in Viterbo, on the second day. The workshop was attended by 51 participants, including representatives from four Italian universities (Roma La Sapienza, Roma Tre, La Tuscia of Viterbo and the University of Florence), six Latin American Institutes (Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama and El Salvador), Italian governmental sectors and research institutions (CNR, CREA and ENEA) and FAO’s technical departments, including the Forestry Department and the Climate, Biodiversity, Land and Water Department. Opening remarks for the workshop were provided by Ms. Maria Florencia Paoloni (Scientific Secretary, IILA), Mr René Castro-Salazar (Assistant Director- General, Climate, Biodiversity, Land and Water Department) and Mr. Davide Bradanini (First Secretary, Permanent Representation of the Republic of Italy to FAO). -
