FAO has implemented, from 2012 to 2015, a project named “Analysis and Mapping of Impacts under Climate Change for Adaptation and Food Security” (AMICAF) in the Philippines and Peru, which aims at assisting countries to address climate change impacts on agriculture from national to local level.
AMICAF consists of four components:
Impacts of climate change on agriculture
Food insecurity vulnerability analysis at household level
Livelihood adaptation to climate change
Institutional analysis and awareness raising
The first component uses the MOSAICC platform to generate spatially downscaled climate change scenarios and a robust assessment of the impacts of climate change on agricultural crops and water resources.
AMICAF continues its second phase in Paraguay and Indonesia.
