2. Objectives
• Show the roles and
importance of forests and
trees for adaptation
• Support NAP practitioners in
integrating forest and trees in
NAPs.
• Support forestry and
agriculture actors in engaging
and contributing to the
process, nationally, in value
chains and locally.
• Create a forward looking
intersectoral policy dialogue
4. • Monitoring impacts of CC
on biodiversity with local
communities (NAP Sri
Lanka)
• Forest fire watch and
prevention (NAPs Fidji, Sri
Lanka)
• Mangroves and coastal
forests protection,
restoration and
sustainable management
(NAPs Fidji, Kiribati, Sri
Lanka, NDCs India,
Vietnam)
5. • Agroforestry (NAP Kiribati,
many NDCs)
• Agroforestry policy India,
Nepal,
• ASEAN Guidelines for
Agroforestry Development
• Rubber, tea, cashew in Sri
Lanka NAP: germplasm,
management, pest
monitoring, research,
capacity development
• Rubber development for
diversification, shade and
socio-economic resilience
6. With support from the CGIAR Fund Donors:

The CGIAR Research Program on Forests, Trees and Agroforestry (FTA) is the world’s largest research for
development program to enhance the role of forests, trees and agroforestry in sustainable development
and food security and to address climate change. CIFOR leads FTA in partnership with Bioversity
International, CATIE, CIRAD, ICRAF, INBAR and TBI.
