This information note summarizes the state of livestock farming in the Orinoco region and the conditions that combine there to develop GANSO (abbreviation for sustainable livestock farming in Spanish, Ganaderia Sostenible), an innovative technical and financial assistance program aimed at a transformation to low-carbon and sustainable livestock farming that embraces productive, economic, social

Gender differences and gender inequalities in rights, status and responsibilities significantly shape daily rural life and life cycles in rural West Africa (Levasseur 2003), where women face significant constraints in participating in activities aimed at restoring forests and farmland.

The overall objective of this project was to support the scaling up of gender sensitive Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) as a mechanism to increase resilience and improve livelihoods of vulnerable households in the face of climate-related impacts.

The Amazon basin is the world’s largest rainforest and the most biologically diverse place on Earth. Despite the critical importance of this region, Amazon forests continue inexorably to be degraded and deforested for various reasons, mainly a consequence of agricultural expansion.

The productivity of small ruminants in developing countries remains low although the animals play an integral role in the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. Current information on their productive performance and contribution to the household incomes of smallholder farmers in Eastern Africa is limited.

Uganda submitted its first Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) in 2015 to the UNFCCC through which it committed to reduce approximately 22% of national GHG emissions in 2030 compared to business-as-usual of 49 million MtCO2eq. The country is currently in the process of updating its NDC in accordance with decision 1/CP.21 of the UNFCCC.

"Climate adaptation has been on the back seat of the international policy agenda for many years; the Paris Agreement and relating Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA) provide new momentum to frame adaptation as a global responsibility and to call for collective measurement approaches.

The present report aims to provide a climate and vulnerability analysis of the Green Innovation Centres (GIC) target commodity value chains. Herein we identify climate change- related vulnerabilities, hazards, and opportunities for adaptation to the same.

A range of interventions within the scope of ecosystems-based adaptation (EbA) are being deployed to address the continuing degradation of forest cover, within protected areas and biodiversity conservation corridors in Cambodia. Ecosystem adaptation has involved the use of ecosystem services as part of the overall adaptation strategy.

The SADC Futures project has developed a range of foresight training materials. The SADC Futures Foresight Training Toolkit forms part of this knowledge series and presents content that was given during the SADC Futures webinar series, a six-part virtual webinar series and facilitated training.

Taking a food systems approach is a promising strategy for improving diets. Implementing such an approach would require the
use of a comprehensive set of metrics to characterize food systems, set meaningful goals, track food system performance, and
evaluate the impacts of food system interventions. Food system metrics are also useful to structure debates and communicate to
