| description | Climate change poses significant threats to Kenya’s agricultural sector, food security, and overall peace. Climate stressors, such as heat, droughts, floods, and extreme weather events, have a negative impact on agricultural productivity and livelihoods, with a potential to exacerbate resource scarcity, and increase social tensions due to conflicts over land, water, and other natural resources.
To tackle these interrelated challenges, it is essential for agricultural practitioners and policies to integrate climate-smart and peace positive considerations. In light of this, the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, in collaboration with the Climate-Smart Agriculture Multi Stakeholder Platform (CSA MSP), and with the valuable support of Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, has partnered with the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT (ABC) to create a training course on Inclusive Approaches to Climate Change, Agriculture, and Peace. This initiative aims to enrich the understanding of how agriculture can contribute to promotion of stability and peace within communities confronted by the escalating climate crisis.
It is increasingly clear that climate-smart agriculture offers a holistic approach to transforming agricultural systems and addressing the complex interplay between agriculture and climate change. By fostering sustainable farming methods, connecting adaptation to mitigation opportunities, and building resilience, climate-smart agricultural can play a significant role in preventing and mitigating conflict risks. Consequently, integrating climate-smart agriculture practices with peacebuilding and conflict-sensitive approaches can enhance food production and stability, reduce the strain on natural resources, and prevent maladaptation.
This course illustrates the potential of CSA to contribute to peace through different climate, peace, and security pathways. The climate, peace and security pathways are conceptualizations that show how the impacts of climate change can directly or indirectly exacerbate conflict risks and affect human security. Hence, by illustrating how CSA can positively contribute to each of these pathways, this course emphasizes the potential of CSA as a tool for conflict prevention and peace promotion. |
