How will it be present during the next UN Climate Change Conference in Poznan, Poland?
Over the years FAO has supported the efforts of the UNFCCC and its secretariat through document reviews and technical papers, through active participation in expert groups on the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and technology transfer, and through side events synchronized with the negotiations. FAO also prepared a position paper for this negotiation highlighting the linkages between climate change and food security and recalling the important role of agriculture for climate change adaptation and mitigation. During Poznan, FAO will lead and co-organize a series of side events aimed at focusing on specific issues such as mitigation in agriculture in rural areas and enhancing country preparedness for Post-Kyoto monitoring and assessment. This meeting will be a good opportunity for the Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF) to present a proposal for a coordinated forest sector response to the climate change agenda.
