Talk & Tour: Climate Smart Agriculture |
|
Unusual rain patterns,
floods or longer periods of droughts are some of the
visible effects of a changing climate in Kenya. The
consequences for small-scale farmers can be disastrous:
They lose an income for a whole season or the basis of
livelihoods altogether.
How can actors in the agricultural sector venture into
new, climate resilient farm management techniques? The
Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations
(FAO) has long-standing experience in “climate-smart
agriculture” and assists farmers in adapting to changing
environments.
Join us in a briefing and discussion with Neema Grace
Mutemi (FAO) about how farmers can improve their food
security and incomes. We invite everyone engaged in
farming, as well as academia or professionals working in
the agricultural sector and anyone interested in the
topic.
The talk will be followed by a guided tour of the United
Nations.
