This presentation is from the Global FFS webinar series on Climate Change, “Session 2: Equipping Farmers for Climate Action: Key Concepts and Tools for FFS.” The document presents a case study on the Farmer Field and Business School (FFBS) approach and illustrates how it can be used as an “innovative curriculum responding to climate change.”

This present and explain key concepts related to climate change.

The first presentation, “Overview of Climate Change” by W. Pieter Pauw (Eindhoven University of Technology), explains what the greenhouse effect is, its causes, and its consequences for the environment.
The second presentation, “What Do Farmers Need to Know About Climate Change to Take Action?” by Brent M. Simpson (FAO Consultant), explains the impacts of climate change on agriculture and outlines the different adaptation and mitigation measures and tools available to farmers.

This is a case study conducted in Senegal, designed to address one key question: What do farmers already understand about climate change?

This is a learning modules and exercises that Farmer Field School practitioners can use with farming communities for community-based adaptation planning.
