For the week of 26-30 November 2012
26 November
– UN Climate Change Conference starts in Doha, Qatar. FAO, as the lead agency for agriculture and food security, will focus on the threat climate change poses to agriculture, fisheries
and forestry. FAO will support countries to ensure that linkages between climate change and food security are taken into account. An event on
Tuesday, 27 November will explore “climate-smart” approaches to agriculture, which can build up small-scale farmers’ resilience faced with more and more difficult growing conditions. An event on
Saturday, 1 December on food security and climate change will explore how all the players in development and agriculture and the broader public can work together on this challenge. Major new agricultural, forestry and fisheries programmes designed to
cope with climate change will also be presented. Full information including reports:
