DocumentOther documentEnvisioning sustainable agricultural futures in Malaysia: National participatory workshop on climate actions and resilience
Workshop report, Putrajaya, Malaysia, 4-6 December 2024

No results found.Malaysia's agrifood systems face mounting challenges from climate change, requiring strategic transformation toward resilience while maintaining food security and economic stability. This report documents outcomes from the "Envisioning sustainable agricultural futures in Malaysia" national participatory workshop, which established a vision for the country to embrace sustainable, resilient, and climate-smart agriculture ensuring access to safe, nutritious, and affordable food for all. The workshop identified six key drivers of change affecting agricultural transformation: climate change, food prices, geopolitical instability, consumption patterns, population dynamics, and emerging uncertainties. Through collaborative stakeholder engagement involving multiple key institutions, four strategic project concepts were developed to address these challenges: an agroecological transformation initiative, utilization of genetic resources and emerging technologies to enhance rice farming resilience, biodiversity conservation for climate adaptation, and modernized climate information systems for agriculture. The document outlines how these initiatives align with Malaysia's climate commitments while providing practical implementation pathways. Part of the Agriculture Sector Readiness project for enhanced climate finance in Southeast Asia, this workshop demonstrates how targeted climate-smart agricultural investments can simultaneously address decarbonization goals, enhance food security, and build systemic resilience in national agrifood systems facing climate uncertainties. -

Workshop report, Phnom Penh, Cambodia, 2-4 April 2024
2025Also available in:
No results found.Cambodia's agricultural systems face escalating climate threats that endanger food security, rural livelihoods, and economic stability. This report presents strategic investment pathways developed during "Envisioning sustainable agricultural futures in Cambodia," a national workshop that applied innovative climate foresight methodology to transform climate challenges into actionable opportunities. The collaborative process produced four forward-looking initiatives addressing key vulnerabilities in Cambodia's agricultural landscape: smart rice technologies combining productivity improvements with emissions reduction, integrated climate-smart approaches for diversified farming systems, a comprehensive program developing location-specific agricultural technologies across six provinces, and coordinated interventions targeting greenhouse gas reduction in livestock and forestry sectors. Each proposal creates pathways for sustainable intensification, improved market access, and enhanced adaptive capacity while aligning with national climate commitments. The document illustrates how climate-smart agricultural investments can simultaneously address environmental sustainability, economic development, and social resilience objectives. Part of the Agriculture Sector Readiness project for enhanced climate finance in Southeast Asia, this workshop demonstrates effective approaches to designing transformative climate investments for Cambodia's agricultural sectors. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureBuilding climate-resilient and eco-friendly agriculture systems and livelihoods in the Lao People's Democratic Republic 2025
Also available in:
In the Lao People's Democratic Republic, 80 percent of the rural population are subsistence farmers. Stronger agriculture systems are essential for the country to attain food and nutrition security, reduce poverty, and achieve the government’s vision of a developing country of upper-middle income with innovative, green and sustainable economic growth by 2030. The country’s agriculture sector is exposed to multiple risks: climatic, biological and economic. Flood, drought and storm are the most prevalent natural hazards, and are expected to become more intense and more frequent with climate change. Vulnerability of agriculture systems in the country is driven by a number of factors, including geographically scattered production due to the country’s topography and weak linkages to urban populations and regional markets; and a heavy dependency of the population on agriculture and natural resources as a source of employment, income and food, among others. Against this background, the "Building Climate-Resilient and Eco-Friendly Agriculture Systems and Livelihoods in Lao People's Democratic Republic" project or Climate REAL project, sought to enhance resilience to climate-related disasters and environmental sustainability of agriculture systems and livelihoods in three districts of Attapeu Province, one of the most marginalized and remote provinces in the country.
