Climate Change, Food Insecurity and Hunger: Key Messages for UNFCCC Negotiators

This paper highlights some of the projected impacts of climate change on food security and summarizes the responses called for by several of the largest humanitarian and development organizations involved in the fight against hunger. To address this unmatched challenge, a strong commitment of the international community, particularly the developed countries, is required. The current negotiation process offers opportunities to identify and endorse some of the actions needed. However, large efforts will be required beyond Copenhagen.
