On 20 March 2018 (10:00-11:30 CET), the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and United Nations Development Programme are holding a webinar on "Ecosystem-based Adaptation and National Adaptation Planning: Opportunities for the Agricultural Sectors".
The third webinar of the EbA in the agricultural sectors module will provide an overview of how EbA can be effectively integrated into the agriculture sectors’ adaptation strategies and broader national adaptation planning processes.
The Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) and National Adaptation Planning: Opportunities for the Agricultural Sectors webinar is jointly organized by FAO and UNDP through the Integrating Agriculture in National Adaptation Plans (NAP-Ag) Programme. The webinar will focus on mainstreaming EbA in the formulation and implementation of National Adaptation Plans (NAPs). Both global presentations and a presentation from Thailand, a NAP-Ag partner country, will outline opportunities, experiences and approaches in mainstreaming EbA into adaptation policy planning processes and strategies at different scales.
