松岛/罗马 — 绿色气候基金理事会在韩国松岛举行第39次会议，并于今天批准了经费为5230万美元的马拉维项目，以帮助该国应对气候变化的破坏性影响，强化长期粮食安全。 项目为期六年，由联合国粮食及农业组织（粮农组织）负责实施，旨在通过基于生态系统的方法，在流域和社区层面建设气候适应能力，惠及马拉维农村社区近57.5万名弱势人口。马拉维是联合国认定的最不发达国家，急需资金建设气候适应能力和韧性。 粮农组织副总干事玛丽亚·海伦娜·塞梅多说：“项目将采取全面、包容和创新的方法，帮助马拉维建设气候适应能力，解决气候变化背景下的主要环境和社会经济挑战。我们欢迎绿色气候基金理事会批准此项目，并期待与马拉维的同行合作，通过基于生态系统的全面气候行动，产生切实影响，推动马拉维农业部门转型。”此举有助于在该国落实粮农组织《2020-2031年气候变化战略》和《2022-2025年行动计划》。
