About this event

Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) is one of the approaches to mitigate or adapt to, Climate Change. The Climate-Smart Agriculture Compliant (C-SAC) tool can be used for certification, auditing and/or training with respect to comprehensive climate-smart agriculture. It is a Trademarked, commercially valid, mechanism for determining the degree of Climate-Smart Agriculture compliance, inherent in projects, processes, and products. The tool, which is based on five categories of compliance, provides a structured methodology for comprehensive CSA training.

The categories of compliance examined in the C-SAC method are Resource conservation; Energy use; Safety; Biodiversity support; and Greenhouse gas reduction.

These five components will be used as pillars to structure the content to be delivered throughout this webinar.

The main aim of this CSA Webinar is to equip our attendees from around the Caribbean with a true understanding of CSA.

The Planning Committee will use specialists from around the region to explore fundamental principles and applications of each component of CSA-C.
