Promoting the Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) practices to enhance the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs)
The ACLP focuses on developing leadership competencies essential for promoting climate-smart land use in the region. It aims to enhance participants leadership capabilities, help them to better understand the interconnectedness of challenges and solutions and develop the motivational abilities required to facilitate collaboration across various sectors and levels.
The programme adopts leadership and innovation lab methodologies developed by the GIZ’s Academy for International Cooperation (AIZ), emphasising the importance of ongoing learning beyond formally structured modules. Experienced experts specializing in leadership and change theory will facilitate the implementation of ACLP III. The first iteration of the ACLP in 2020 centered on promoting sustainable and resilient land management to support food security and mitigate climate effects. The 2021 ACLP II focused on applying climate-smart land use practices to implement Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
The Climate Smart Land Use (CSLU) in ASEAN, with funding from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), jointly organises the ACLP with the Southeast Asian Regional Centre for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture (SEARCA) and other partners.
