The Global Alliance for Climate Smart Agriculture - GACSA

4 - 5 May 2023. The Global Alliance for Climate Smart Agriculture - GACSA

Addressing food systems challenges will likely involve increasing agricultural productivity in sustainable ways that are resilient to climate impacts, enhancing social protection that builds productive assets, and reducing inequalities in food access, among other things. 

As countries are updating their Nationally Determined Contributions, this is an opportune moment to involve all key stakeholders in transforming food systems in the context of climate change. 

CSA can play a vital role in middle- and long-term national agricultural and climate change strategies, together with GACSA's new activity proposals and cross cutting themes, ensuring farmers are placed in the central role of value chains. 

Expected Outcomes 

  • Highlight the important role of CSA in sustainable food systems, investments and actions on global, regional and country level 
  • Engage GACSA Members in new activity proposals 
  • Promote scaling-up of climate-smart agriculture innovations and technologies 
  • Strengthen collaborations amongst Action Groups and Regional Alliances - Create "satellites" for GACSA countries, regions and constituencies
