Food security and climate change: a report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition [1]

Food insecurity and climate change are, more than ever, the two major global challenges humanity is facing, and climate change is increasingly perceived as one of the greatest challenges for food security. This is why in 2010, the Committee requested the HLPE to work on Climate Change and Food Security and more specifically to review existing assessments and initiatives on the effects of climate change on food security and nutrition, with a focus on the most affected and vulnerable regions and populations and the interface between climate change and agricultural productivity, including the challenges and opportunities of adaptation and mitigation policies and actions for food security and nutrition. This report on Climate Change and Food Security was finalized and approved by the Steering Committee at its meeting held in St. Petersburg, Russia, 5-8 June 2012.
