The briefing note summarizes the key messages of the FAO regional workshop ”Making the UNFCCC work for Agriculture in Asia and the Pacific” held on 19-20 November 2015 in Bangkok, Thailand. Under the guidance of experts from FAO, UNFCCC, UNDP, CGIAR technical centers, national and regional research institutions, representatives from the Ministries of Agriculture, Environment and other relevant sectors in 15 countries in Asia and the Pacific engaged in a series of instructional and interactive s essions designed to identify ways to better leverage the UNFCCC framework to deliver climate-resilient, low emissions development in the agriculture sectors comprising crops, livestock, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture. Generally, improved understanding of ongoing UNFCCC processes and engagement by agriculture sector stakeholders in these processes will be necessary so that adequate measures are taken to strengthen the resilience of agriculture and agriculture dependent communities to climate change and ensure regional food security while also avoiding dangerous levels of global warming.
