The FAO and Business Finland are organizing a hybrid event at COP28 on December 11, 2023, titled "AgroAdapt: Cultivate the Future." The event, held at the Finland Pavilion, showcases a serious game, AgroAdapt, designed to address climate change challenges in the agri-food system. The game utilizes FAO's Global Agro-Ecological Zoning data, offering an interactive experience for stakeholders to make decisions for a resilient agri-food system. The event aims to highlight the potential of serious gaming in climate change adaptation, fostering collaboration, and improving decision-making skills.
