Science, innovation and local knowledge unite to transform agriculture in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Latin America and the Caribbean is currently facing a critical scenario: climate change threatens agricultural production, food insecurity is on the rise, and ecosystems are under increasing pressure. In response to this reality, the Initiative AgriLAC Resiliente has shown that science, technology and local knowledge can converge to transform agri-food systems in a sustainable and inclusive way.
Led by the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT – together with CIMMYT, IFPRI, and CIP – AgriLAC Resiliente promoted a regional strategy based on collaborative research, digitalization, capacity building and territorial action, with an approach based on a clear premise: resilient agriculture is possible when scientific solutions are co-created with those who inhabit and manage the land.
