Book (stand-alone)General interest bookManaging risks to build climate-smart and resilient agrifood value chains
The role of climate services
2022Also available in:
This work provides a preliminary analysis of the key climate risks affecting agrifood value chains and opportunities for climate services that reach stakeholders involved in all stages of the value chain, from agrifood production to harvest, storage and refrigeration, processing and packaging, transportation, markets, trade and consumption. Climate services provide opportunities to effectively and comprehensively mainstream climate risk management across the entire agrifood value chain, in addition to increasing sustainability and efficiency in the face of changing climate conditions. This report provides significant primary information and recommendations on the development of climate services across the agrifood value chain with a view to systematically enhance sustainable and resilient opportunities. It also provides a basis for further research and investment funding in this area. Its findings could spark follow-up research and public and private investment. -
ProjectFactsheetBuilding Sustainable Tropical Fruit Value Chains Globally - GCP/GLO/022/GER 2021
Also available in:
No results found.The tropical fruit sector is very important in many developing countries, as it provides incomes and jobs for hundreds of thousands of farmers and other workers, contributing to the enhancement of livelihoods and food security in these countries. In addition, tropical fruit exports generate substantial earnings for several developing countries, and their unit value is the highest among fruits and vegetables. Tropical fruits are also part of a healthy diet for millions of people. Despite its importance, the sector faces significant sustainability issues (environmental, economic and social), which have been compounded by the impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19) pandemic. This project was formulated to mitigate these issues by fostering the development of more sustainable and responsible tropical fruit value chains though multistakeholder engagement. The project will initially prioritize work with the private sector (companies, trade associations and producer organizations) due to its central role in these value chains. This includes facilitating collaboration between relevant actors and capacity development activities to strengthen producer organizations and other private sector actors so that they may participate actively in the development of these value chains. -
