Objective

The joint UNDP-FAO Programme main goals are 1) Enhanced capacity to identify and appraise innovative and transformative climate-sensitive agriculture and land use actions into NDCs; 2) Strengthened national and sectoral plans and budgets to integrate agriculture and land use sectors’ climate-related priorities; 3) Increased climate action in agriculture and land use through stronger mobilization of private sector engagement and finance. The support from SCALA will be critical in ensuring that agricultural sector representatives in Egypt will be well-equipped to understand, assess and prioritize adaptation solutions including in the context of Egypt’s NDCs.
