Global Alliance for Climate-Smart Agriculture (GACSA)

• It is an inclusive, voluntary, and action-oriented multi-stakeholder platform on Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA).
• Its vision is to improve food security, nutrition, and resilience in the face of climate change.  It aims to catalyze and help create transformational partnerships to encourage actions that reject an integrated approach to the three pillars of CSA.
• GACSA works towards three aspirational outcomes to:
• Improve farmers’ agricultural productivity and incomes in a sustainable way;
• Build farmers’ resilience to extreme weather and changing climate;
• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with agriculture, when possible.
• Members:
• GACSA is a voluntary platform open to governments, international and regional organizations, institutions, civil society, farmers’ organizations, and businesses who agree with its vision and its Framework Document.
• Being a member does not create any binding obligations and members determine their particular voluntary actions according to their needs and priorities.
• Individuals cannot be members, but they can join GACSA’s Action Groups.
