Increasing trends of climatic risk pose challenges to the food security and livelihoods of smallholders in vulnerable regions, where farmers often face loss of the entire crop, pushing farmers (mostly men) out of agriculture in destitution, creating a situation of agricultural making agriculture highly feminization and compelling male farmers to out-migrate. Climate-smart agricultural practices (CSAPs) are promoted to cope with climatic risks.
Este estudio de caso realizado para el Banco Mundial por la Cátedra Latinoamericana de Decisiones Ambientales para el Cambio Global (CLADA) del CATIE en colaboración con el Centro Latinoamericano para la Competitividad y el Desarrollo Sostenible (CLACDS) del INCAE Business School, tiene como objetivo el diseño y aplicación de una metodología para el análisis conjunto de los diferentes elementos del Crecimiento Verde e Inclusivo a nivel territorial, que sirva como insumo para un diálogo que permita llegar a acuerdos sobre prioridades de política y de acciones que promuevan actividades produc
Este trabajo tiene como objetivo preparar participativamente una estrategia local de desarrollo sostenible bajo cambio climático en el municipio de Santa Rita, departamento Copán - Honduras, con énfasis en la comunidad de Tierra Fría No. 1. Para eso busca desarrollar un análisis del territorio en sus diferentes dimensiones (cultural, social, económico, institucional y ambiental) y caracterizar a los diferentes actores que integran la mesa de ambiente y producción (MESAP) de la MANCORSARIC, incluyendo la comunidad de Tierra Fría N.
The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) financed the second Cordillera Highland Agricultural Resource Management Project (CHARMP2), in areas where poverty is most severe among indigenous peoples in the highlands of the Cordillera Region in northern Philippines. The aim is to reduce poverty and improve the livelihoods of indigenous peoples living in farming communities in the mountainous project area. The indigenous peoples consist of many tribes whose main economic activity is agriculture.
The Asia-Pacific Association of Agricultural Research Institutions (APAARI) in collaboration with the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), Department of Agriculture (DOA), Thailand, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations – Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (FAO RAP), Global Forum on Agricultural Research (GFAR) and International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), organized a High Level Policy Dialogue (HLPD) on Investment in Agricultural Research for Sustainable Development in Asia and the Pacific on 8-9 December 2015 in Bangkok, Th
International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) partnered with the Asia-Pacific Association of Agricultural Research Institutions (APAARI) in 2011 to conduct a series of policy dialogues on the prioritization of demand-driven agricultural research for development in South Asia. Dialogues were conducted with a wide range of stakeholders in Bangladesh, India, and Nepal in mid-2012 and this report captures feedback from those dialogues.

Holding a vision of Lifestyle for Environment (LiFE), and with a target of net-zero carbon emission by 2070, India plans to usher in a green industrial and economic transition through a movement with an environmentally conscious lifestyle. One of the credible options for a continuous, predictable, accessible and cost-free green energy source is solar power. In the agricultural sector, one of the key innovations in promoting solar irrigation was the initiation of the world's first ever Solar Cooperative - Dhundi Solar Energy Producers' Cooperative Society (DSEPCS) - in Gujarat, India.
