How young farmers are advocating for–and building–a better food system. Over 400 million acres of agricultural land will change hands in the next twenty years — how will we ensure we don’t lose a generation of farmers in the transition?

IPCC report findings on climate change mitigation in agriculture
A dialog among scientists, practitioners and financiers
April 16, 2014
World Bank, Washington, DC
Following the April 13th release of the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report on Mitigation, including Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Uses (AFOLU), this event will provided an opportunity to listen to IPCC authors summarize their findings and for all participants to join in a dialog with practitioners and financiers to discuss actionable steps for mitigation in the agricultural sector.
The event was a joint effort of the World Bank, the Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases, and the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS).
DRM Webinar I: Governing and managing disaster risk in the agriculture sectorFAO
Over the past decade, economic damages resulting from natural hazards have amounted to USD 1.5 trillion caused by geophysical hazards such as earthquakes, tsunamis and landslides, as well as hydro-meteorological hazards, including storms, floods, droughts and wild fires. Climate-related disasters, in particular, are increasing worldwide and expected to intensify with climate change. They disproportionately affect food insecure, poor people – over 75 percent of whom derive their livelihoods from agriculture. Agricultural livelihoods can only be protected from multiple hazards if adequate disaster risk reduction and management efforts are strengthened within and across sectors, anchored in the context-specific needs of local livelihoods systems.
This series of three webinars on Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRR/M) in agriculture is organized to:
1. Discuss the new opportunities and pressing challenges in reducing and managing disaster risk in agriculture;
2. Learn and share experiences about disaster risk reduction and management good practices based on concrete examples from the field; discuss how to create evidence and conditions for upscaling of good practices; and
3. Exchange experiences and knowledge with partners around resilience to natural hazards and climate-related disasters.
The webinar covers:
• Institutional capacity development for DRM for resilience, food security and nutrition
• Mainstreaming DRM in agriculture sector planning
• Linking planning and capacity development for DRM, resilience and climate change adaptation (CCA)
Uganda - Addressing agricultural resilience in long term climate planning ins...UNDP Climate
The landscape of climate planning instruments available to countries under the UNFCCC process includes National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and Long Term Strategies (LTS). These instruments have emerged at different milestones such as the Cancun Adaptation Framework and the Paris Agreement and have specific characteristics and objectives which can contribute to and reinforce each other if leveraged effectively. Despite their very distinctive nature, these national instruments can be harnessed to scale up climate change adaptation by fostering linkages depending upon country context.
Addressing climate resilience in sectors and across sectors is a vital part of climate planning. Adaptation in agriculture is a crucial component of building resilient economies and societies and is national priority for a significant number of countries. It is well established that agricultural sectors are amongst the most climate sensitive. Over 90 percent of developing countries’ NDCs refer to agriculture as a major priority.
The juxtaposition of the range of climate planning instruments on one hand, and the sensitivity of agriculture on the other requires that all instruments be linked, sequenced and aligned appropriately by countries to best fit their national circumstances.
The webinar will draw upon country-level experiences from NAP-Ag partner countries to highlight entry points for alignment and strategies to trigger this conversation.
Webinar highlights
Unpacking the characteristics of NAPs, NDCs and LTS.
Exploring steps being taken by ministries of agriculture, ministries of environment, water and finance to leverage these instruments to scale up climate adaptation in agriculture.
Identifying what linkages are already being fostered between NAPs, NDCs and LTS and the key considerations in advancing climate change adaptation in agriculture.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

2. Large Impact Scale - Knowledge for Change
▶ The Program was designed to make rural poverty and rural
development a higher priority on the policy agenda.
▶ RDGs consist of diverse stakeholders, always in the rural
world, who organize and conduct processes of political
dialogue, policy analysis and technical assistance for
decision makers.
▶ RDG’s in Latin America:
▶ Colombia
▶ Ecuador
▶ El Salvador
▶ Mexico
3. Participatory Impact Pathways
Adapted to RDGs experience
▶ Evaluation method for policy influence
▶ 2 premises:
▶ Policy influence outcomes are part of a causal chain
involving diverse stakeholders, and programs therefore
have different degrees of attribution and contribution
to these results
▶ The effects can lie in three areas:
▶ Stakeholders
▶ Policies
▶ Their Processes
5. Implementation of the Method
1. Reconstructing the objective and strategy of each RDG using
trees of problems and objectives, along with their
respective stakeholder’s maps.
2. Identifying the action strategy.
3. Identifying the outcomes achieved.
4. Describing the mechanisms and factors that were key for
the achievement of those outcomes.
6. Implementation of the Method
▶ Review of documentation and secondary material (RDG
records, reports and documents about public allocations, etc.)
▶ Personal interviews with members of the groups and relevant
public stakeholders
▶ Focus groups or ordinary meetings of the RDGs, at which
their members discussed their actions and achievements.
All of the resulting information was analyzed and
triangulated
8. RDG México
▶ Public Policy
▶ Government Program of the candidates for President of
the Republic
▶ RDG Contribution
▶ Elaboration of a programmatic proposal on poverty and
rural development in Mexico, delivered to the candidates.

beneficiaries
▶ PMC are already a MAGAP public policy and are being executed
for rice, corn, cocoa, banana, and oil palm
10. RDG Colombia
▶ Public Policy
▶ Mission for Countryside Transformation (Rural Mission)
▶ Rural territorial development in the Caribbean Region
▶ RDG contribution

implementation strategy of the DRI Program.
11. RDG El Salvador
▶ Public Policy
▶ Food and Nutritional Security and Sovereignty Law
▶ National Environmental Policy
▶ “Territories In Progress” program
▶ Interministerial Agreement on a “Green Sugar Harvest”
▶ RDG contribution
▶ RDG develops a media strategy requesting the approval of the
law, including Policy Brief and media inserts.
▶ Contribution to strategies for ecosystem restoration and climate
change adaptation to change agricultural practices
▶ RDG supports MESPABAL in its creation, working together with
different national actors and the Technical Secretariat of the
Presidency
▶ Contribution to Interministerial Agreement MAG / MARN on a
“Green Sugar Harvest”, motivated by dialogue between the RDG,
MESPABAL and the Sugar Association of El Salvador.
12. Key Factors – “Processes”
▶ Importance of the selected strategies: flexible and attentive to
opportunities.
▶ The makeup and modus operandi of the RDG’s: pluralistic, with
regular activities over time.
▶ High-quality input for discussion and ongoing analysis of the
situation, and with dynamic issues and stakeholders.
▶ The ability to involve key stakeholders either as members or as
interlocutors in the State.
▶ The role played by the technical secretaries as legitimate
conveners and conductors.
▶ Progressive ability of RDGs to deal with complex issues – inter-
sectorial from the perspective of policy makers
