The study has three primary objectives. The first is to develop and apply a pilot methodology for assessing agricultural vulnerability to climate change and for formulating adaptation response strategies to inform private and public sector decisions in the Latin America region. The study is principally concerned with adaptation responses to climate change, rather than mitigation. The second objective is to formulate recommendations for investments in each of the selected agro-ecosystems in a range of areas including agricultural technology adaptation, infrastructure investments, public and private sector support activities, and institutional and policy changes. The final objective is to disseminate the study results in the Latin America region and other parts of the world to help increase understanding of the impacts of climate change and alternative adaptation response strategies. This methodology can be used by the Bank to support client countries in defining response strategies, designing related investment projects, and formulating policy changes. 2013-02-22T22:38:10Z 2013-02-22T22:38:10Z 2009-01 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2009/01/16275272/building-response-strategies-climate-change-agricultural-systems-latin-americabr http://hdl.handle.net/10986/12473 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Other Agricultural Study Economic & Sector Work Latin America & Caribbean |

This report, Building Response
Strategies to Climate Change in Agricultural Systems in
Latin America, reports the results of action research to
identify and prioritize stakeholder driven, locally relevant
response options to climate change in Latin American
agriculture. The study has three primary objectives. The
first is to develop and apply a pilot methodology for
assessing agricultural vulnerability to climate change and
for formulating adaptation response strategies to inform
private and public sector decisions in the Latin America
region. The study is principally concerned with adaptation
responses to climate change, rather than mitigation. The
second objective is to formulate recommendations for
investments in each of the selected agro-ecosystems in a
range of areas including agricultural technology adaptation,
infrastructure investments, public and private sector
support activities, and institutional and policy changes.
The final objective is to disseminate the study results in
the Latin America region and other parts of the world to
help increase understanding of the impacts of climate change
and alternative adaptation response strategies. This
methodology can be used by the Bank to support client
countries in defining response strategies, designing related
investment projects, and formulating policy changes. |
