Philanthropies can provide critical seed funding that can accelerate the development of new science and technology and help mobilize future investments from the public and private sectors, definitely invaluable but how to ensure they do this wisely?

Smallholder farmers are among those most vulnerable to disasters, some of which are predictable.

Combining #AnticipatoryAction & #SocialProtection can help us mitigate disaster impacts.

So instead of reacting to disasters, we can protect communities ahead of time.

[FAO Director-General QU Dongyu @FAODG]

Agroforestry can help restore 1B+ hectares of degraded agricultural land, increase soil fertility & agricultural productivity, & improve livelihoods. We need concerted efforts to scale-up agroforestry, share know-how & develop appropriate policies & practices. #CL174 #SOFO2022

“That is why targeted finance for #farmers is key to unlocking the unique potential of agrifood systems to tackle the #ClimateCrisis”

@FAO @KavehZahedi2030 speaks today on Agric. Day at #COP28UAE event on ‘Farmers and Traditional Food Producers’

[FAO Climate Change & Biodiversity @FAOclimate]

Btw 2000-2021, climate development financial support for agrifood systems amounted to USD 183 billion. In 2021 contributions reached USD 19 billion, marking a 12% decline compared to 2020.

We need to reverse this trend 👇

Agrifood most #climate affected sector but climate finance flows to it low and on the decrease according to new @FAO report released @COP28_UAE https://t.co/SWKwAI5o1d

[Earth Negotiations Bulletin @IISD_ENB]

Kaveh Zahedi, Director @FAOclimate, drew attention to the new Climate-related Development Finance to Agrifood Systems report, which reveals the amount of #climatefinance flowing to #agrifood systems is strikingly low and continues to diminish

Prof. @schipper_lisa commenting on the outcomes of the COP28 in "COP28 climate summit signals the end of fossil fuels — but is it enough?" @Nature - definitely worth a read.

Now that @COP28_UAE has generated an outcome in form of #UAEConsensus, it is time for immediate implementation and effective delivery on means adaptation, mitigation and most importantly, means of implementation (requisite funding, capacity building and technology transfer).

@BBCMaryam It was hilarious! No worries.

That's inspiring! And your increased responsibilities! @licyp

When I touch my feet 👣 on my village Bashikhong in Manipur, India 🇮🇳, my community people gave me a heroic welcome today for my actions in #COP28UAE because my community is already the victims of climate change. I have no words except my tears 😭. ♥️🙏🏻😇

[Daniel Perell @DanielPerell]

As #COP28 concluded, somehow I kept thinking about my father. Perhaps this explains why.

[Zakir Md. Hossain @krisoks]

@DanielPerell @BahaiBIC However brief but insightful messages, as always you @DanielPerell do! My take from this piece:
1. COP decesion outcomes are to be Legally binded.
2. Redefining 'Development'
3. Rebooting 'Financial instruments'

[Zakir Md. Hossain @krisoks]

@DanielPerell @BahaiBIC 4. Institutes' (From UN to States, Community to family and individual, Business to Charities, and so on) perceptional and behavioral change and practice accordingly.
