Analysis and Mapping of Impacts under Climate Change for Adaptation and Food Security (AMICAF)

The “Analysis and Mapping of Impacts under Climate Change for Adaptation and Food Security (AMICAF)” project is being implemented by FAO to fill the information gap between academic climate change impact assessments and stakeholder decision making processes.

Multi-disciplinary assessment for Policy Planning
AMICAF employs a multi-disciplinary assessment approach to address climate change impacts and adaptation planning to improve food security. The approach ensures that there is an evidence base for decision making and policy planning processes. This project supports strategic planning, investments and decisions by national policy makers.
