This is an official Track 3 Event of the Latin America and the Caribbean Climate Week 2023.
Major land-use sectors such as forestry and agriculture play a large role in national emissions, biodiversity conservation, and human well-being. Conservation of land for food along the food chain plays a major role in addressing climate change as well as securing sustainable food systems. Further, the transition to sustainable food systems in the LAC region benefits from enhanced urban and peri-urban agriculture practices. This session, therefore, explores the nexus of sustainable land management, food security, and climate change, focusing on opportunities for transformative adaptation and long-term resilience in the LAC region.
