PART 1 Food security as a global issue -- Chapter 1 Climate change and food security: A glance on principles and strategic road map -- Chapter 2 Commentary on evolution of policy and operationalization of action to make "food security" the first priority -- Chapter 3 Agricultural productivity and food security: Land degradation and changes over time -- Chapter 4 A Comprehensive Overview of Water and Food Security crisis influencing Human Mobility patterns -- PART 2 Climate variability and food security -- Chapter 5 The critical role of Smallholders in Survival food security -- Chapter 6 Climate change and food security in the Bamenda Highlands of Cameroon -- Chapter 7 Building capacities for agricultural disaster risk reduction in the Western Balkan Countries -- Chapter 8 Commentary on China's current food security status, future trends and responses under climate variability -- PART 3 Food Security and Livelihoods -- Chapter 9 Leaving No One Behind from farm to fork; Building resilience along smallholder value chain in the context of climate change -- Chapter 10 Establishing Multi-Partnerships in Environmental Governance in Indonesia: Case of "DesaMakmurPerduliApi" (Prosperous and Fire Free Villages) Program -- Chapter 11 From Zero-Acreage Farming to Zero Hunger in African Cities: Some Possibilities and Opportunities -- Chapter 12 Organic Farming Practices can combat Drought and Land Degradation through efficient use of Land and Water -- Part 4 Concluding thoughts and reflections -- Chapter 13 Reality and Consequence for Livestock Production, Human Nutrition, Health and Food Security under the impact of climate change -- Chapter 14 Changes in Agricultural Land Use and Food Security: Challenges -- Chapter 15 Diversification and land use management practices for food and nutritional security under climate change scenario in arid and semi-arid regions -- Chapter 16 Unifying concepts, synthesis and conclusions.

This volume analyzes the global challenges of food security, land use changes, and climate change impacts on food production in order to recommend sustainable development policies, anticipate future food services and demands, and identify the economic benefits and trade-offs of meeting food security demands and achieving climate change mitigation objectives. The key points of analysis that form the conclusions of this book are based on measuring the quantity and quality of land and water resources, and the rate of use of sustainable management of these resources in the context of socio-economic factors, including food security, poverty, and climate change impacts. In six parts, readers will learn about these crucial dimensions of the affects of climate change on food security, and will gain a better understanding of how to assess the trade-offs when combating multiple climate change challenges and how to develop sustainable solutions to these problems. The book presents multidimensional perspectives from expert contributors, offering holistic and strategic approaches to link knowledge on climate change and food security with action in the form of policy recommendations, with a focus on sociological and socio-economic components of climate change impacts. The intended audience of the book includes students and researchers engaged in climate change and food security issues, NGOs, and policy makers.
