    This publication aims to create awareness and prompt action amongst policy-makers and practitioners to address the impact of climate change (notably changes in temperature and rainfall) to the countrys food security. It serves as a good example of how the ongoing FAO and Government of Lesotho project activities Environment, are complementing identified by the National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) on climate change. It also draws on lessons learnt on strengthening capacity for climat e change adaptation in agriculture at national, district and community level, focusing on selected areas of crops, livestock and forest-based livelihood systems. The publication would be a useful resource to policy-makers, development partners and field practitioners on documenting and identifying viable community-based response and practices in climate change adaptation, and in pointing out opportunities for scaling-up in other parts of the country and region with similar agro-ecological and social context.

    Forests, food security and sustainable livelihoods 2000
    Also available in:
    As the articles in this issue suggest, forests contribute to food security and sustainable livelihoods in numerous ways, not only directly but also indirectly, through support to agricultural systems, their role in rural development and in maintaining environmental integrity and the provision of op-portunities for income generation and employment. Governments would do well to consider these contributions in their pursuit of food security goals, by integrating forestry with other disciplines, for example agriculture and nutrition, in policy and planning.
