A Toolkit for National Action on Climate, Biodiversity, and Water in Agriculture and Food Systems

Ahead of COP29, the newly updated Toolkit for National Action on Climate, Biodiversity, and Water in Agriculture and Food Systems aims to be a comprehensive resource designed to support national policymakers and decision-makers as they drive forward climate, biodiversity, and water action and transformative changes within food and agriculture systems.

The toolkit serves as a practical guide for integrating sustainable agriculture and food measures into Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs), and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs).

It includes:

  • Priority actions to accelerate national progress on climate and food systems transformation.
  • Examples of successful NDCs, NBSAPs, and NAPs showcasing how countries are integrating agriculture and food measures effectively.
  • An overview of valuable initiatives, platforms, and tools to support governments in crafting and implementing robust agricultural policies within their climate commitments.
