Climate change is today a major threat for the environment and sustainable development. This is one of the challenges that Benin is currently facing to ensure the food security of its populations. The program Environment and climate Change, comes to accompany the vulnerable communities to adapt to climate change and to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change while preserving the environment. Three strategic directions are set out in this programme:
• Adaptation of vulnerable communities to climate change
• Mitigation of the adverse effects of climate change
• Improving knowledge of the population on the adoption of sustainable management practices of biodiversity
