Agriculture and Rural Development Day 2009 to Coincide with the UN Climate Negotiations, Copenhagen, December 12
Tue, 09/22/2009

An Agriculture and Rural Development Day 2009 will be held on 12 December in Copenhagen, coinciding with the United Nations Climate Negotiations (UNFCCC COP-15).

With a focus on "The road after Copenhagen: priority strategies and actions for ensuring food security and rural development in the face of climate change", the event will bring together policy makers and negotiators, rural development practitioners, producers, civil society and the agricultural and climate change scientific community to highlight the importance of agriculture in climate change and to identify the "no-regret" priorities for agriculture and food security where the world needs to take action. The event will develop a work plan with strategies and actions to fully incorporate agriculture into the post-Copenhagen agenda.

More information, including a program and registration information available at www.agricultureday.org.
