Climate change Climate change: building the resilience of poor rural communities
“Climate change has a special significance for IFAD. Agriculture is the main source of livelihood for most poor rural people, and it is also the human activity most directly affected by climate change.
“Dealing with the inevitable
impact of climate change is now high on the development agenda. By listening to the voices of poor rural people while planning adaptation and mitigation efforts, we can reduce the risks of climate change while accelerating progress towards food security and a world without poverty.”
IFAD President - Lennart Båge

Each day, new issues and processes are reshaping the face of poverty in rural societies, including climate change, rising energy and food prices, agro-fuel production and increasing migration and urbanization. This means that development programmers and policymakers need to re-examine the way they respond.
