FAO at COP26: Green and climate-resilient agriculture: Supporting action at global level and on the ground
Green and Climate-Resilient Agriculture employs agricultural practices, technologies and innovations that enhance productivity in a sustainable manner, increase resilience and food security, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and ensure higher incomes for small-scale producers. It will require action on the ground, in collaboration with FAO Members and partners to best support countries while maximizing synergies and minimizing trade-offs. This event is organized by FAO in collaboration with the Governments of the People’s Republic of China and the United States of America, the Global Environment Facility, and the Green Climate Fund. Under the wider 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, the event aim is to promote green and climate-resilient solutions in agriculture to respond to the climate crisis, biodiversity loss, ecosystem degradation, hunger and poverty.
