1) The document discusses strategic objective 2 (SO2) of making agriculture, forestry, and fisheries more productive and sustainable. 2) SO2 aims to benefit people and conserve natural resources through multi-disciplinary and cross-sectoral approaches that integrate environmental, economic, and social sustainability. 3) FAO and CGIAR centers currently collaborate on research related to climate-smart agriculture, ecosystem services and biodiversity, efficient resource use through sustainable intensification, and developing indicators for nutrition-sensitive agriculture.

1. SO2: Make Agriculture, Forestry and
Fisheries More Productive and
Sustainable
Clayton Campanhola
Strategic Objective Coordinator
12th Meeting – CGIAR/ ISPC
Sep 2015, Rome

2. Indicators provide clear line of sight to the results

4. challenge of increased production requires innovative
approaches  benefit people and conserve the natural
resource base
what is new/different about SO2?
• multi-disciplinary approach, working across all sectors to
ensure sustainability
• the integration of the three “pillars” of sustainable
development (environmental, economic and social); and
• ways to generate the needed wide-scale transition to more
sustainable practices/ adoption of more sustainable practices.
Context and Rationale: Why SO2?

5. 5
Building a Common Vision for Sustainable Food and
Agriculture
Enhance the efficiency
of resource use
Conserve, protect, and
enhance natural
resources
Improve & protect livelihoods
and human well-being
Enhance the resilience of people,
communities and ecosystems
Promote and improve
effective governance

• Climate Smart Agriculture
 Collaboration with ICRAF and CIAT-CCAFS brought more science to
project implementation
 Collaboration provided FAO with more evidence to inform decision
makers
 Collaboration complemented FAO expertise with CIAT-CCAFS research
 Collaboration helped ICRAF and CIAT-CCAFS develop a major research
program around Green House Gas (GHG) measurements and another
smaller initiative on Climate Smart Agriculture
