The plan was designed to guide the implementation of a proactive approach to DRRM within the agricultural sector over a period of three years (2014–2016) to contribute to the achievement of the following long-term vision for DRRM in agriculture: Prevent and reduce the impacts from natural disasters and climate change on farming communities and the agricultural sectors, and contribute to enhanced resilience of livelihoods for sustainable and fair food and nutrition security in Lao PDR. The Plan of Action is a tool for translating the vision of DRRM in agriculture into doable actions, and thus contributes to ensuring that sustainable, food secure and climate-proofed DRRM interventions contribute to the resilience of farming communities and the agricultural sectors in Lao PDR. It builds on existing institutional mechanisms and mandates to systematically address the impacts of natural and biological disasters (including climate change) on agriculture, livestock, fisheries/aquaculture and forestry. It will catalyse links between DRRM, CCA and sustainable NRM, and reinforce agricultural development with a strong institutional basis for implementation. Texte intégral Anglais Site web www.fao.org
