Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time, and science plays a fundamental role in guiding the decisions that will shape the planet’s future. In this context, the appointment of Augusto Castro-Núñez, Senior Scientist at the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, as a Lead Author for the Seventh Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) represents a significant milestone for both the institution and the Latin American region.

Castro will join Working Group III, focused on climate change mitigation, and will contribute specifically to Chapter XIII on Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU), a key sector for reducing emissions and achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement.
