Climate change significantly impacts rural areas, affecting both their ecosystems and the livelihoods of residents. Fortunately, there are numerous solutions to promote climate-resilient and low-emission rural landscapes, ensuring food security within planetary boundaries. But how can we realize climate-sensitive rural development, and how does it contribute to transforming our agricultural and food systems? This factsheet explores these interconnections, presents strategic solutions, and illustrates them with practical examples. It underlines that climate-sensitive rural development should advocate for systemic approaches that reduce risks for vulnerable groups and take into account structural factors within the political framework, highlighting that such methods greatly aid in the transformation of agricultural and food systems.
CRISP helps practitioners and policy makers in the agri-food sector to understand climate related risks, and to identify relevant adaptation options for their specific agricultural systems. This publication illustrates the practical application of the CRISP tool in Bolivia and Zambia. To show you what the tool can do, and which impacts it has already generated, two projects are presenting their findings in this factsheet.
The Compendium provides an overview of the most relevant tools that can be applied to integrate climate change adaptation and mitigation into development projects. It categorizes these tools by level and complexity of application, methodology and target group and prepares the tools for a more convenient application by practitioners. The tools enable entry points for agroecological transformation and identify site-appropriate agroecological practices. The interactive Product Landscape complements the Compendium and gives a visual overview of and easy access to the tools as well as additional relevant documents.
Adverse weather and climate variability are impacting the agriculture production in all regions of the world. The effects are felt especially hard by small-scale agricultural producers. Currently around 2.9 million small-scale producers and workers in over 75 countries participate in Fair Trade schemes.
This national report on the application of the e3.ge model in Georgia outlines the CRED approach of modelling economy-wide impacts of climate change and adaptation. It a general understanding of macroeconomic models, and the impacts of climate change in Georgia. The report integrates both the economic and climatic dimensions in the e3.ge model and conducts exemplary analyses of adaptation options in the agriculture and tourism/infrastructure sectors.
This national report on the application of the e3.kz approach in Kazakhstan outlines the CRED approach of modelling economy-wide impacts of climate change and adaptation. It informs about macroeconomic modelling and climate change impacts in Kazakhstan and combines both dimensions in the e3.kz model. The report also conducts exemplary analyses of adaptation options in the agriculture, energy, and infrastructure sectors.
The Global Report evaluates the effectiveness of using climate-sensitive macroeconomic modeling in achieving climate resilience in Georgia, Kazakhstan, and Vietnam. The report emphasizes the use of the model-based process for adaptation planning and evidence-based policymaking.
After nine years of committed efforts to promote climate risk management in the international arena and in countries at risk, the Global Programme Loss and Damage came to an end in December 2022. This Factsheet encompasses its key outputs and publications.
La metodología para la evaluación de riesgos climáticos en la infraestructura pública de Costa Rica (MERCI-CR) presenta un instrumento para analysar los riesgos y preparar la protección de la infraestructura y la continuidad de los servicios públicos vitales ante eventos climáticos.
This guideline offers insights and lessons learned on the preparation and implementation of climate risk communication approaches. It was developed by the Community of Practice Climate Risk to provide directions on the preparation and implementation of communication approaches and the dissemination of results to different users and target groups for the improved uptake of the results of climate risk and vulnerability assessments.
