CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security. 2019. Institutional capacity in Honduras is strengthened to address climate change and variability challenges by using CCAFS-CIAT science.. Reported in Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security Annual Report 2019. Outcome Impact Case Report.

Following the Climate Change Law (2013), the Secretariat of Agriculture and Livestock (SAG) has positioned itself as a leader on climate action and increased its capacity to address climate change and variability thanks to CCAFS support. Today, Honduras has robust policies and instruments to address climate issues in the agri-food sector, informed by science such as the Climate Change Adaptation Strategy (2015-2025), the Institutional Plan for Climate Change Adaptation (2019-2023), seven Local Technical Agroclimatic Committees (LTACs), and municipal adaptation plans.
