Uganda’s AgroClimate Advisory Committees (AACs), supported by the ECREA project led by the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, brings scientists, extension officers, media and farmers together to interpret climate forecasts and deliver practical advisories to bean farmers across several districts.
CGIAR employs a rigorous quality assurance (QA) process to ensure that its technical reporting is accurate and backed by high-quality evidence. This is crucial for CGIAR’s transparency and decision-making and for its accountability to its many donors and partners. The QA process involves independently evaluating in a multi-round validation process the key results submitted by CGIAR research programs each year
Could a fruit often considered “pig feed” or “crop residue” improve nutrition, protect biodiversity, generate income for farming households, and strengthen cultural identity? Discover here the case of chayote or guatila (Sechium edule) in Colombia.
The Alliance of Bioversity International and the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Kenya’s Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Forestry, marking a significant step forward in strengthening collaboration to advance sustainable development, climate action, and resilient landscapes across the country.
Farmers, researchers, and institutions under the ECREA project are strengthening inclusive climate services in Uganda’s bean sector, improving access to weather information, addressing gaps, and building sustainable systems for resilient farming.
Fisheries management usually focuses on how much can be caught sustainably
In Tanzania, nearly half of banana farmers in Kagera have adopted improved varieties introduced through a partnership led by ENABEL and KU Leuven, with CGIAR playing a crucial role in their selection and dissemination, helping secure food and livelihoods for over 125,000 people in the region.
CGIAR is the world’s largest global agricultural innovation network. We provide evidence to policy makers, innovation to partners, and new tools to harness the economic, environmental and nutritional power of agriculture.
