Jahan-Zeb Chowdhury: What's in store for COP28

Lead Technical Specialist, Environment and Climate Cluster Coordinator at IFAD

 

COP28 is upon us and here at IFAD we’re readying ourselves to highlight the importance of supporting small-scale farmers. Environment and climate expert Jahan-Zeb Chowdhury details IFAD’s plans for this year’s event, which will be held in Dubai.

 

Hisham Zehni and Flavia Perusini on ASAP

 

The Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Programme (ASAP) gives rural people the tools they need to adapt to increasingly erratic weather patterns. Climate and environment experts Hisham Zehni and Flavia Perusini tell us how this grant-based initiative has transformed IFAD’s approach to climate change and helped small-scale farmers build resilience.

 

Roshan Cooke, part I: The ASHA project

Roshan Cooke, Country Director at IFAD

The Adaptation for Smallholders in Hilly Areas (ASHA) project in Nepal has supported nearly 100,000 households. Country Director Roshan Cooke tells us more about the project and his team’s work on the ground, including promoting agroforestry and improving soil fertility.

 

The importance of clean energy, with Philippe Remy

Philippe Remy, Country Director at IFAD

 

The Multi-energy for Resilience and Integrated Territorial Management Project in Mali assists small-scale farmers – especially women and youth – by providing cleaner energy sources, which in turn helps build climate resilience for rural people. Philippe Remy tells us all about it.

 

Roshan Cooke, part II: The successor

Roshan Cooke, Country Director at IFAD

 

After ASHA, comes the Resilient High-Value Agriculture Programme (RHVAP). Roshan Cooke explains how RHVAP builds on ASHA to further promote climate-resilient, high-value agriculture and boost small-scale farmers’ incomes and food security.

 

Claus Reiner introduces IFAD's first project in the Brazilian Amazon region

Claus Reiner, Country Director at IFAD

 

We feature the first ever IFAD-funded project in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest – The Amazon Sustainable Management Project. The project works with Indigenous Peoples and small-scale farmers to promote sustainable resource management and community prosperity. Country Director Claus Reiner joins us to discuss the project and its key strategies
