CCAFS’ Alberto Millan, who is working on finance innovation for the organization, participated on a panel yesterday evening in Bonn. The panel entitled, Agriculture is on the COP menu…so what now for climate finance?, was a side event at the SBSTA’s meetings co-hosted by FAO, IFAD, WFP and the panelists in addition to CCAFS represented two governments (Kenya and Mongolia), a civil society organization (Action Aid) and two funders (GCF and GEF).
The panel covered how to use climate finance to drive action across the global agricultural community and support smallholders in adopting sustainable and resilient farming systems.
