Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetPromoting responsible investment in agriculture and food systems in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic: Successful experiences and stories from government officials 2022
Also available in:
Agriculture is the cornerstone of Lao People’s Democratic Republic. Increasing responsible investment in agriculture and food systems (RAI) is one of the most efficient strategies to enhance food security and achieve sustainable economic development. This booklet summarizes the work conducted by FAO to enhance the enabling environment for RAI in the country through strengthening the capacities of key actors and enhancing multi-stakeholder dialogue among the government, civil society organizations and the private sector. It also provides insight of the progress made and the challenges that remain through the stories of two government officials who participated in the activities conducted by FAO and its partners. This work has been done under the project "Enhancing the enabling environment for responsible investment in agriculture and food systems" funded by the Federal Government of Germany. -
Book (series)Terminal evaluation of the project "Strengthening agroclimatic monitoring and information systems to improve adaptation to climate change and food security in the Lao People's Democratic Republic"
Project code: GCP/LAO/021/LDF - GEF ID 5462

No results found.The project focused on technical innovation to strengthen efforts to build climate resilience of smallholder producers. The project, beyond original expectations, generated an agroecological zoning modelling tool (pyAEZ) of global relevance. The project achieved many of its outputs, some of which went beyond the indicators and exceeded targets for coverage. Securing co-financing (and engaging other actors in complementary efforts) was very successful. The network of weather stations was improved along with establishing a laboratory for calibration of the sensors of the automatic weather station (AWS), and the Lao Climate Service for Agriculture (LaCSA), a decision-making tool developed by the project to provide agrometeorological advisories and early warnings. The project was found to have made a significant contribution to strengthening agroclimatic monitoring and information systems to improve adaptation to climate change and food security. -

It aimed to i) enhance the monitoring, analsyis, communication and use of agrometerological data and information at national and provincial levels for decision-making in agriculture and food security; and ii) improve the monitoring and analsysis of agriculture production systems by strengthening the Land Resources Information Management System (LRIMS) and agroecological zoning (AEZ) for agricutltural policies and climate change adaptation. The evaluation covered the project's full five-years and aimed to provide evidence of the most productive egroclimatic approaches for the country.
