Abstract

In the face of escalating threats to human health, food security, and ecological sustainability due to climate change, particularly in marginalized and vulnerable communities globally, urgent actions are imperative. This chapter addresses the pressing need for initiatives that mitigate adverse climatic impacts and align with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a specific focus on food and health outcomes. Recognizing the intricate and multidimensional impact of climate change on these vital aspects of human well-being, there is a growing call for an integrated, science-based approach. The proposed approach advocates for a harmonious marriage of scientific knowledge and local wisdom to address access inequities through agroecology, thereby mitigating the impact of climate change on development-constrained communities. The overarching goal is to pave the way for healthier, more sustainable, and equitable food systems.
