Fairtrade network of Asia and Pacific producers launches Climate School

Climate change is a fundamental threat to many agriculture regions. Small producer organizations remain particularly vulnerable with the change posing serious threat to their livelihoods.

Many countries in the region are experiencing frequent natural calamities – intense flooding, droughts, storms. Under developed and developing countries in Asia and Pacific are particularly vulnerable, as their economies are substantially dependent on agriculture and related businesses. Fairtrade Network of Asia and Pacific Producers (NAPP) with more than 270 producer organizations, geographically spread across Asia and Pacific regions, has therefore rolled out an innovative new project to support farmers in adapting to climate change starting with the launch of ‘Climate Academy’ in four countries with over 12 producer organizations.
