Adaptive Farms, Resilient Tables: Building secure food systems and celebrating distinct culinary traditions in a world of climate uncertainty

Appe-teaser Version

As the world gets hotter and rainfall more erratic, the type and availability of ingredients for daily meals are changing. With support from the Government of Canada and the Global Environment Facility’s Least Developed Countries Fund, the Canada-UNDP Climate Change Adaptation Facility (CCAF) has been supporting six least developed countries and small island developing states (Cabo Verde, Cambodia, Haiti, Mali, Niger and Sudan) to strengthen climate resilience and enhance food security.

To better understand and share the experiences from these six countries, and to celebrate some of the successes of the projects in enhancing food security and water access, the CCAF team has worked together to create a cookbook. This "Appe-teaser" version of the cookbook, a short teaser, offers a recipe from each country. The full publication will be available in early 2017, showcasing more delicious recipes and more information on how climate change is impacting specific ingredients and recipes, and how each country's adaptation efforts are changing the ingredients and cooking methods traditionally used.
