General overview

The impacts of climate change are reducing the capacity of natural resources (biodiversity, soil and water) to sustain the food demand of the world’s increasing population. Food security and climate change are therefore interlinked challenges that need to be addressed simultaneously. Increasing resource efficiency in agriculture and building resilience to climate risks are the key actions for undertaking these challenges. This implies a significant transformation of agriculture and food systems, with concerted action and coordinated involvement of all stakeholders on along-term perspective. To this end, CSA is an integrated approach that helps guide actions and develop agricultural strategies to effectively support development and ensure food security under the threat of climate change.
