Abstract:
|
This paper identifies fourteen cases of large-scale actions in the agriculture and food sector that have adaptation and/or mitigation outcomes, and distils lessons from the cases. The cases cover policy and strategy development (including where climate smart objectives were not the initial aim), climate risk management through insurance, weather information services and social protection, and agricultural initiatives that have a strong link to climate change adaptation and mitigation.
The 14 case studies presented in a secondary document downloadable at the link below. |
