Climate change is one of the greatest challenges the world faces. A collective effort is needed to overcome the impacts. Nearly 75 per cent of the world’s food insecure and poor people rely on agriculture and natural resources for their livelihoods. Agricultural sectors are particularly exposed to the effects of climate change and increased climate variability. The impacts are already felt today and are aggravated by unsustainable practices that result in land degradation, water scarcity, biodiversity loss, and degraded ecosystem services.
