Dr. Lauren Baker, PhD, is Senior Director of Programs at the Global Alliance for the Future of Food.

This year climate finance is all the talk. As the UN Climate Conference in Bonn wraps up and the stage is set for COP29 later this year, expectations are high for governments to agree on a new climate finance package that will tackle the worsening climate and ecological crises. In many countries, food production is the climate frontline. Nearly 95% of nationally determined contributions include adaptation and mitigation actions in the agriculture sector yet fail to address the full food system.

By embracing agroecology, communities have better control over the food they produce to future-proof their livelihoods and to make decisions to strengthen food sovereignty based on locally-tested solutions and knowledge. There is a political appetite to make this transition and intergrate agroecological approaches into policy.
