Resumen
Descripción
This study has been commissioned by FAO to help strengthen the rationale on the nexus of biodiversity-climate change-food and nutrition security in the Small Island Developing States (SIDS) of Samoa and Tonga. The literature review examines food and nutrition security levels in Samoa and Tonga, in the light of biodiversity for food and agriculture (BFA), the current agricultural system, and climate-change mitigation strategies. The policy environment and landscape to mainstream BFA is also investigated. The study identifies existing gaps and opportunities and recommends the next steps to ensure the nexus of BFA, farming systems, food and nutrition security and climate-change adaptation is strengthened to dynamize livelihoods and ecosystem services.
