FAO and ECLAC provide the secretariat.<\/p>\n<p>The Platform considers the social, environmental and economic dimensions to seek synergies between the initiative and major environmental conventions, such as Climate Change, Agenda 2030, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, and the Conventions on Biological Diversity and Combating Desertification and Drought.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key emphases for 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Among the main results of the technical meetings of the thematic working groups was the importance of developing indicators, based on research and development, to characterize the benefits and promote concrete innovations in Latin America and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n<p>Participants agreed to work in a coordinated manner to propose concrete activities to promote regional coordination and collaboration among countries on the various issues related to agriculture and climate change.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\"The idea is that we can support the scaling up of climate action initiatives of national and regional interest, making sure that this reaches the people, the small producer,\" said Angelina Espinoza, president of PLACA and climate change specialist at Chile's Office of Agricultural Studies and Policies.\"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>About PLACA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Platform for Climate Action in Agriculture in Latin America and the Caribbean was launched in 2019, within the framework of COP25.
