As we near the UN Biodiversity Conference, Farms.Food.Future takes a look at a different side of climate change: biodiversity and conservation.
In this month’s episode, Senior Biodiversity Specialist Nadine Azzu tells us about her expectations for the conference. We learn more about the landmark agreement that first brought biodiversity to the table: The Convention on Biological Diversity.
We also hear about three projects of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) that put biodiversity and conservation at the forefront of their mission.
Food Systems Summit Director Nadine Gbossa and Nigeria Country Director Dede Ekoue tell us more about the Global Donor Platform for Rural Development.
Our series on Bangladesh continues with Recipes for Change Chef Carlo Cracco, who travels to Sri Lanka to find out how jackfruit is helping local communities.
We learn about INSURED, an IFAD programme that helps small-scale farmers receive agriculture and climate-related insurance.
You can listen to our podcast via any of your favourite podcast platforms or go to www.ifad.org/podcasts.
Farms.Food.Future is a monthly podcast produced by the International Fund for Agricultural Development.
Each one-hour episode, released on the last Monday of every month, has a different theme that speaks to the challenges concerning food security, the climate crisis, and fair livelihoods that are faced by the world’s poorest communities, and smallholder farmers from developing countries.
It includes interviews with experts, partners, and even some celebrities from the world of food….but, most importantly, Farms. Food. Future. talks to the farmers themselves.
