Descripción
This report summarizes the proceedings of a regional workshop on “Rice Landscapes and Climate Change: mitigation in rice-based agroecosystems and the scaling-up of climate-smart rice cultivation technologies in Asia.” Participants left the workshop with an enhanced understanding of the implications of the Paris Agreement and the importance and relevance of climate-smart rice cultivation practices for increasing resilience, reducing GHG emissions and storing carbon in rice ecosystems. Knowledge sessions on the global policy context for climate action were followed with technical sessions on a range of ongoing research and technical advisory initiatives related to rice production systems and climate change. A special session on capacity building provided practically oriented examples and information to apply and scale-up measures related to climate-smart rice production practices.
