At a time where climate finance in the agriculture and land use sector is urgently needed, FAO is committed to supporting countries to unlock their growth potential and promote climate action for more efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable agrifood systems.

FAO supports countries with access to finance through several funding channels including the Green Climate Fund, Global Environment Facility and Adaptation Fund, and through bilateral funding and support setting up carbon projects.  

FAO draws on its strong field presence and in-depth understanding of policies and procedures to assist countries with the development and implementation of hundreds of country-led projects on adaptation, climate-smart agriculture, combatting land and forest degradation, sustainable forest management and disaster risk reduction helping them turn their climate ambitions into actions.
