The Technical Center for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation ACP-EU (CTA) is organizing an international seminar on the “Implications of Global Climate Change for Sustainable Agricultural Production Systems in ACP countries”. The seminar will be held in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso from 26 to 31 October 2008. The seminar will focus on how climate change affects interactions between the main ACP (African, Caribbean and Pacific countries) agricultural production systems and the cross-cutting issues that threaten agricultural sustainability and rural development.
