TSPC signed a new agreement with the UN World Food Programme in Kyrgyzstan

December 13, 2013

On November 29, 2013, the Tian Shan Policy Center concluded an agreement with the UN World Food Programme in the Kyrgyz Republic on joint development of the report on climate change impacts and food security.

According to IPCC report climate change will have negative effects on agriculture and food security. Therefore the food systems need to be adapted for minimizing the negative climate risks and to enhance the food security. According to the World Bank study, Kyrgyzstan was ranked the most climate sensitive country among 28 European, Caucasus and Central Asian countries. This rank was based on the current climate variability and the potential impacts on natural disasters that exacerbate sustainable development challenges in the areas of poverty, food security, energy and agriculture.

Considering the above mentioned facts UN WFP in Kyrgyzstan started studying the link of climate change impact and food security. For this purpose as the first step the evidence based report analyzing the link of climate risk and food security has been drafted based on secondary data analyses.

The UN WFP and TSPC aim to communicate and disseminate the report findings among the key government, international and local stakeholders.
