Climate Resilience of IFAD Programmes
The International Fund for Agricultural Development IFAD is a key partner for Switzerland in the efforts to lift smallholder farmers out of poverty. However, climate change is putting the success of the IFAD’s development programmes at risk. Switzerland supports the integration in all IFAD projects of measures that respond to potential climate threats into all IFAD projects. As a result, farmers become more resilient and Swiss investments through IFAD more sustainable.

| Contesto |
Recognizing that its target beneficiaries, poor smallholder farmers, are particularly hard-hit by the effects of the changing climate, IFAD will mainstream climate change concerns into its whole portfolio. In complement to the unearmarked core contributions by Member States to IFAD’s resources, so called Unrestricted Complementary Contributions on Climate Change Mainstreaming help IFAD to make all its programmes climate-responsive. |
| Obiettivi | Strengthening the climate resilience of poor rural people’s economic activities, and thus making IFAD investments more sustainable, while at the same time contributing to the goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change. |
| Gruppi target | IFAD's target group: poor rural people, including smallholder farmers, land-poor and landless workers, women and youth, marginalized ethnic groups, and victims of disaster and conflict. They account for the majority of the world's poor and hungry people. |
