| description | On 21 September 2016, the Global Alliance for Climate-Smart Agriculture (GACSA), the
Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA), the CGIAR research
program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) and the International
Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) hosted a panel event on “Innovative
Approaches for Scaling Up Climate-Smart Agriculture.” The event was held as part of New
York Climate Week, and featured a panel of international experts.
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is a vision and approach for sustainably transforming
agriculture to be more productive and profitable, more resilient to climate across time scales,
and part of the solution to the increasing greenhouse gas burden, in the face of a changing
climate. The panel brought in a range of perspectives on how to achieve these often contextspecific
challenges at scale. Panellists recognized that there no single solution to the challenge
of ensuring a food-secure future in the face of a changing climate. But there are many
innovations that have been demonstrated successfully, and provide lessons for scaling up.
Panel presentations and subsequent discussion brought out several key points. Some of the
most promising innovations for scaling up CSA—including climate information services,
insurance, and support from the global food industry—go beyond farm-level technologies and
practice to foster an enabling institutional environment. Costa Rica’s CSA strategy showcases
how national policy can foster the CSA “triple win.” Finally, scaling up CSA – making
smallholder agriculture more productive and resilient in the face of a changing climate, while
reducing agriculture’s contribution to climate change – requires effective, sustained
partnerships among governments, the private sector, the research community, and the
development (including NGO) community. |
