Pequeñas explotaciones, gran impacto: integración sistemática de la adaptación al cambio climático para aumentar la capacidad de resistencia y fomentar la seguridad alimentaria
recursos naturales de la mayor parte del mundo en
desarrollo, acelera la degradación de los ecosistemas y
convierte la agricultura en una actividad más arriesgada.
En consecuencia, los pequeños agricultores, que
desempeñan una función sumamente decisiva en la
seguridad alimentaria mundial, se enfrentan a un clima
cada vez más extremo. Los pequeños agricultores se
ven afectados de una forma más directa por las sequías,
las inundaciones y las tormentas, a la vez que sufren
los efectos paulatinos del cambio climático, como el
estrés hídrico en los cultivos y la ganadería, la erosión
costera debida al aumento del nivel del mar y la
imprevisibilidad de las infestaciones de plagas.

Pacific Regional Workshop Report
In February 2013, the First Global Meeting of the Indigenous Peoples Forum took place at the IFAD headquarters in Rome, in conjunction with the 36th session of the Governing Council. In attendance at this inaugural meeting were 31 indigenous people’s representatives from 25 countries in Asia, Pacific, Latin America, Africa and the Caribbean regions. Of the 19 Asia- Pacific regional representatives, two were from the Pacific; Mr. Anthony Wale, the Executive Director Aoke Langalanga Constituency Apex Association (ALCAA), and Ms Rufina Peter, Senior Research Officer at the PNG Institute of National Affairs.
During the meeting the Pacific representatives highlighted the need for the Pacific to have a “separate identity” as per the outcomes of Asia Pacific regional preparatory workshop in Bangkok. The issue was one of visibility for the Pacific Region due to its unique, rich and diverse cultures and traditions, its significant land and sea area and its high biodiversity. The Pacific Regional meeting proposed three action plans, of which the Pacific Regional Workshop in preparation of the Second Global Meeting of the Indigenous Peoples’ Forum at IFAD is a direct result.
