Technical reportFAO/IPCC Expert meeting on land use, climate change and food security 2017
Also available in:
No results found.One hundred scientists, economists and policy experts participated in a three-day expert meeting (EM) to engage in a high-level, globally oriented, and multidisciplinary scoping of topics that climate change to land use and food security. The EM was structured around five themes: climate impacts and human-directed drivers of land change and linkages to food security; mitigation and adaptation options; and policies for resource management, smallholder resilience, mitigation and food and nutrition security. The present report offers a comprehensive synthesis of the EM findings and conclusions reflecting the collective view participants and external reviewers. The report is a valuable source for the IPCC above-mentioned Special Report, especially in relation to food security, as well to researchers and policy makers concerned with the policy implication of food security in relation to post-Paris climate action and Agenda 2030. -
FactsheetMeasuring Climate Co-Benefits of Livestock Development in Cameroon - UTF/CMR/046/CMR 2022
Also available in:
No results found.As Cameroon seeks to develop its livestock sector while simultaneously making it more climate smart, more capacity is needed to understand how livestock can contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation. Funded by the World Bank, PRODEL is a large scale development project that aims to improve the productivity and competitiveness of targeted livestock production systems in Cameroon. It also represents an opportunity to adapt to climate change and mitigate its effects. To help quantify the climate benefits of investing in climate smart livestock development, this project aimed to provide technical assistance and capacity building to support PRODEL to measure its co benefits and strengthen its contribution to climate smart livestock. -
Technical studyLivestock climate action in Zimbabwe
Enhancing nationally determined contributions for a sustainable future
2025Also available in:
No results found.Zimbabwe is advancing climate change adaptation in its livestock sector, with key strategies reflected in both its initial and updated nationally determined contributions (NDCs). Although various climate-smart practices are already being implemented through livestock support programs, their contributions to adaptation and mitigation remain largely undocumented, resulting in their omission from the NDCs. To address this, the Department of Livestock Research has introduced a Tier 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory for cattle, allowing for more accurate assessments of mitigation potential and informing the 2025 NDC update. This report brings together insights from literature reviews, policy analysis, and stakeholder consultations to evaluate the current policy landscape for livestock-related climate action. It highlights the sector’s growing vulnerability to climate change, including feed scarcity, disease outbreaks, and declining productivity. The report identifies key policy gaps and stresses the importance of capacity building, data-driven planning, and inclusive engagement to enhance climate resilience and reduce emissions in the livestock sector.
