The report on the State of the Climate in Africa 2021 is the result of collaboration between the African Union Commission (AUC), the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), and other specialized agencies of the United Nations. This multi-agency effo...
Barriers to implementation of sustainable land management (SLM) practices limit their ability to contribute to addressing land degradation. This report presents country case studies from the Resilient Food Systems programme highlighting SLM project a...
Liberia, due to its location on the west coast of Africa, within the tropical rain forest climate belt with heavy rain, is faced with high climate change risks, including cyclones, floods and rising sea levels. Its vulnerability to climate variabilit...
The Gambia is vulnerable to the impacts of climate change from increases in temperature, decreases in rainfall, and a rise in the sea level, which affect millions of people and make adaptation more urgent. Rapid changes in climate tend to have severe...
Ghana is highly vulnerable to climate change due to its location along the Atlantic Ocean in a tropical climate zone. This increasingly exposes the country to the risks of climate change including rising sea levels, drought, higher temperatures and e...
Sierra Leone, like many other countries in the region, is impacted by natural events such as more frequent floods, rising sea levels and coastal erosion, among others. Flooding disasters and its consequent waterborne diseases exacerbated by lack of s...
The "Local Solutions from the Global South: Changing the Narrative of the Climate Debate" sheds light on local innovations and practical solutions from organisations headed by Catalyst 2030 members. They are climate champions who are making a differe...

The aspirational goal of FAST is to implement concrete actions that would result in improving the quantity and quality of climate finance contributions to transform agriculture and food systems by 2030, to support adaptation and maintain a 1.5-degree...
This work provides a preliminary analysis of the key climate risks affecting agrifood value chains and opportunities for climate services that reach stakeholders involved in all stages of the value chain, from agrifood production to harvest, storage...
Loss and damage is a term used to describe the aftermath of the impacts of climate change as mitigation efforts fail and emissions continue to rise, and the consequences of climate change go beyond what people can adapt to. This paper looks at the so...
