A key element in sustainable and transformative development in agriculture is ensuring that investments are designed on the basis of robust evidence about both past and future climate variability, seasonality and extremes. The CRTB has been developed to promote the identification of climate risk hotspots around the world and to support the "climate-proofing" of FAO programmes and projects. The CRTB includes a series of guiding questions, each of them associated with a geospatial layer, that automatically identifies baseline and future climate-related hazards in the chosen area. An automatic report of the climate risk screening can be generated, along with tailored climate-resilient measures that can be integrated into agricultural investment projects. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Nationally Determined Contributions Agriculture and Transparency Assessment navigator development was also supported.
