Abstract

This report presents findings from a study funded by the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) through the Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Program (ASAP2). The study was conducted by AGT International and the Centro Euro-Mediterraneo per i Cambiamenti Climatici Foundation (CMCC Foundation), in collaboration with IFAD's Environment, Climate, Gender, and Social Inclusion Division team in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Aligned with IFAD's Strategic Framework (2016-2025), the study focuses on enhancing nutrition and climate resilience to support rural inclusivity and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the region. The goal of this study is to generate and disseminate knowledge derived from seven IFAD-selected projects in the LAC region. It emphasizes best practices and lessons learned in nutrition enhancement and climate change adaptation. Additionally, the study aims to provide recommendations for replicating and scaling up these best practices while ensuring the integration of cross-cutting themes such as environment, nutrition, gender, youth, and indigenous peoples. Methodologically, the study combines a review of primary and secondary sources with insights gathered from semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders. This is complemented by knowledge shared during a peer-to-peer meeting. Nine key lessons learned and best practices are outlined, offering both synthesized analyses across projects and specific examples of successful methodologies and activities. By analyzing the integration of nutrition and climate resilience in various projects across LAC, this study identifies strategies to strengthen the climate-nutrition nexus in upcoming interventions. These findings offer actionable insights and recommendations to inform future strategies aimed at transforming food systems in the region, contributing to sustainable development goals, and ensuring the well-being of communities in Latin America and the Caribbean.
