Synopsis (short abstract) This document represents a collaborative partnership and commitment by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) to support the Sri Lankan women, men and youth through decent livelihoods in agriculture, livestock, fishery, forestry and environment and aims to equip them with inputs, new techniques and technologies that improve food security through productivity enhancement and marketability of agricultural produce. The document is aligned with the priorities and development thrusts outlined in the National Policies of the government. It focuses on vulnerable and marginalized communities to help enhance their food security and resilience to environmental changes and economic shocks. The proposed Country Programming Framework (CPF) will also support the communities in preserving the country’s land and marine resources through sustainable production practices.

    This report presents evidence-based insights into the socioeconomic conditions, risk perceptions, and farming practices of smallholder paddy farmers in Sri Lanka. Drawing on surveys and field pilots across three provinces, it explores how climate change, resource constraints, and regional disparities shape farmers’ decisions on water use, crop management, and technology adoption. The findings highlight both the challenges and opportunities for improving irrigation efficiency, enhancing resilience, and recognizing the multifunctional roles of paddy farming. By linking farm-level realities to broader policy recommendations, the report offers practical guidance for advancing sustainable rice production, food security, and rural livelihoods in the face of growing climate variability.

    This case study delves into the transformative efforts of the global snow leopard and ecosystems protection program (GSLEP) towards fostering unity among snow leopard range country governments, non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations, local communities, and the private sector through a transboundary holistic approach and a collective embraced vision to conserve snow leopards and their valuable high-mountain ecosystems, including addressing conservation conflicts. The snow leopard inhabits twelve countries in Central and South Asia, which include Afghanistan, the Kingdom of Bhutan, China, India, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Russian Federation, The Republic of Tajikistan, and the republic of Uzbekistan. In 2013, officials from these countries met in Bishkek, the Kyrgyz republic, under the initiative of the republic’s President, to endorse a new global initiative during the first global snow leopard & ecosystem forum.
