Laying the foundations for increased climate adaptation and mitigation in Eswatini’s Agricultural Sector

This readiness project will help the country lay the foundation for increased adaptation and mitigation along agricultural value chains. It will:

• support the strengthening of Functional Multilevel climate change coordination structures in the agricultural and related sectors to respond and act on climate change impacts;
• document incentives and instruments for catalyzing adoption and mainstreaming of climate smart technologies, approaches and practices along agricultural value chains;
• document innovative, integrated, affordable and replicable tools to protect vulnerable farmers from the consequences of climate-related shocks;
• create inventory of VC specific concrete climate change adaptation infrastructure and assets as well as climate adaptive interventions along key value chains with gender, environmental and social impact assessments of their implementation ; and
• develop Eswatini’s Baselines for MoA/COSPE/FAO GCF SAP project and any other future GCF proposals as well as GEF/Adaptation Fund.
