As the world strives for a better future, 50 years of CGIAR innovations show the power of science to transform food, land, and water systems in a climate crisis.

Fifty years of CGIAR innovations show the power of food systems to support livelihoods and end poverty.

In a post-War world, CGIAR grew out of international efforts to feed a growing global population. Fifty years later, those efforts have expanded to view human well-being as part of a much bigger picture, encompassing human, animal, and ecosystem health under pressure of a climate crisis.

Women's realities are often overlooked in agricultural development, holding back entire societies. For decades, CGIAR innovations have broken down barriers to gender equality, building stronger food systems for all.

For 50 years, CGIAR innovations have helped to reduce poverty and hunger worldwide. But new approaches are needed in the face of 21st century challenges. In a climate crisis, our food systems must change course.
