Saint Lucia Climate Resilient Agriculture National Inventory Summary
Description
It has 9 bibliographic references on page 15
Abstract
St. Lucia's institutional framework addresses climate change in the agriculture sector. It provides an overview of public policy instruments and programs/projects that promote low carbon and climate-resilient agriculture. The document also identifies coordination mechanisms between agricultural-focused organizations and other stakeholders to protect the country's food and nutrition security and the livelihoods of small-scale farmers and fisherfolk. The information serves as a baseline for addressing climate change in agriculture and to identify areas for collaboration and coordination. St. Lucia has demonstrated the application of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) or Climate-Resilient Agriculture (CRA) strategies, such as water systems, policy and strategic frameworks, and capacity for evidence-based planning.
