For the fifteenth installment of Delta Talks, the CGIAR Initiative on Asian Mega-Deltas (AMD) and Wageningen University & Research (WUR) presented a webinar on lessons learned from a water and food systems in deltas research project.
Catharien Terwisscha van Scheltinga of WUR presented the learnings from the 2 to 6 years journey of the Food Systems in Delta research work conducted by the WUR KB Deltas team. The lessons learned and findings she shared will be useful in formulating solutions for food-related challenges in deltas that are under pressure from climate-induced salinization and drought.

A collaboration between AMD and WUR, Delta Talks is a webinar series focusing on the development and results of research activities on securing food systems and strengthening climate resilience in the Asian mega-deltas. Delta Talks serves as a platform for the joint exchange of research results or ongoing work between AMD and WUR.
