US-UAE Partnership Leads Climate-Smart Agriculture Initiative
The initiative focuses on doubling investment in climate-smart agriculture and advancing global food system innovation, highlighting the commitment of both nations to address pressing climate challenges.
The AIM for Climate Summit saw collaboration between the US Department of Agriculture and the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment in organising the event.
The initiative’s partnerships have expanded to include over 500 governmental and non-governmental organisations worldwide.
The mission "Innovation for Climate Change, Food Security, and Agriculture" was launched on the final day of the AIM for Climate summit, aiming to mobilise more investments and support to expand the global scope of agricultural and climate innovations by proposing mechanisms to encourage innovation in climate, food security, and agriculture.
This coincides with the United Nations Climate Change Conference ("COP28") to be hosted by the United Arab Emirates later this year.
