Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) has grown from a concept into an approach implemented throughout the world, by all types of stakeholders.

The action points are: 1) expanding the evidence base for CSA, 2) supporting enabling policy frameworks, 3) strengthening national and local institutions, 4) enhancing funding and financing options, and 5) implementing CSA practices at the field level.
