The FAO Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia is implementing a Technical Cooperation Programme Facility project TCP/RER/3203 (D): Mapping of and policy orientation for adaptation to climate change in selected countries of CEE and CA sub-regions.

The project has as its objectives to

• compile an inventory of available studies, adaptation measures and policies related to the reduction of impacts of climate change in the field of agriculture, forestry and water management in selected countries of the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and Central Asia (CA) subregions,
• review known climate change impact projections, national policy scenarios and outlook studies and their regional implications with a focus on adaptation and mitigation measures in agriculture and then, to the extent possible,
• develop recommendations on best practices for adaptation and policy measures at the national and regional levels (including international cooperation at trans-boundary and sub-regional levels) as well as
• proposals for technical assistance to the member countries in the Europe and Central Asia region for future research and adaptation responses both at national and regional levels.
