ProjectHelping Countries to Plan and Implement Climate Action in Agriculture through Improved Capacity and Knowledge - GCP/GLO/890/GER 2022
Also available in:
No results found.The Paris Agreement constitutes a landmark achievement in the international response to climate change. Developed and developing countries alike committed in 2015 to doing their part in the transition to a low-emissions and climate-resilient future, as expressed in countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). Achieving the long-term climate goals of the Agreement, however, rests upon the enhanced institutional and technical capacity of developing countries to design, implement and track increasingly ambitious mitigation and adaption actions in the agriculture sectors. In the first round of NDCs, countries clearly referred to the need for enhanced capacities to engage stakeholders and facilitate inclusive planning and implementation processes, formulate new strategies, policies and laws, revise existing national policies and plans (including by mainstreaming climate change considerations), monitor and evaluate interventions and track GHG emissions and sinks, as well as adaptation needs and progress. Providing opportunities for exchange among decision-makers, technical experts and implementers can thereby contribute to laying the foundations for successful and ambitious interventions. -
ProjectEnhancing Capacities and Sharing Knowledge of Developing Countries on Agricultural Solutions to Address Climate Change - GCP/GLO/992/JPN 2023

No results found.IPCC Sixth Assessment Reports (AR6) emphasizes that minimizing trade-offs with respect to climate actions in AFOLU sector requires integrated approaches to meet multiple objectives including food security, and provides win-win options that can contribute to both enhanced productivity and climate benefits. Recognizing the valuable contributions of the agriculture sector to achieving emission reductions in Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), many countries in Asia and Pacific included one or more actions in the agriculture sector in their latest NDCs. The Global Methane Pledge, launched at 26th Conference of the Parties (2021) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and joined by 150 countries, including countries in the Asian region, represents a global momentum for further collective actions for methane emissions reductions, including those from agriculture. The present project responded to the need to improve sustainable development and food security through enhanced country capacity to implement adaptation and mitigation actions across agricultural sectors. -
ProjectEnhancing Country Capacity to Implement Climate Change Adaptation Measures in Fisheries and Aquaculture - GCP/GLO/959/NOR 2022
Also available in:
No results found.The direct and indirect effects of climate change are altering aquatic ecosystems, driving changes in physical, chemical and biological processes, including changes in the distribution and abundance of species, and in the frequency and/or severity of extreme events. These changes are likely to have implications for fisheries and aquaculture, and could consequently impact food security and the livelihoods of millions of people worldwide. Evidence indicates that climate change impacts will be geographically uneven, calling for significant tailored support to assist developing countries, many of which are likely to be negatively affected the most, with how to make positive and cohesive adaptations that ultimately moderate potential loss and damage, or help them benefit from opportunities associated with climate change. Effective adaptation is a process of positive adjustment of policies, resource management, and associated systems, as well as building the capacity of communities and the private sector to prepare for and respond to climate change impacts. Against this background, the project aimed to improve the capacity of three selected countries, the Philippines, Saint Lucia and South Africa, to develop and implement effective climate change adaptation plans and actions that promoted socio economic development in the fisheries and aquaculture sector.
