Nairobi, Kenya – The United Nations' Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN) convened National Designated Entities (NDEs ) from 45 African nations for the NDE Forum on System Transformation through Climate Technology Transfer. This event, held during the UNFCCC African Climate Week (ACW) and hosted by the Government of Kenya, aimed to accelerate Africa's climate action through technology exchange and collaboration.
The agriculture sector supports lives and livelihoods in communities around the world. FAO estimates that small-scale farmers produce over 70% of the world's food needs. Helping farmers cope with climate change impacts, while also reducing the sectors greenhouse gas emissions, requires outreach to large and small-scale farm operations. Transferring technology in the farming sector both reduces vulnerability to climate change risks while increasing food security and enhancing the overall health and well-being of farming communities. Ranging from conventional to organic regenerative farming practices, agricultural technologies encompass tools and techniques to grow and process food crops consumed locally and traded around the world.
