As researchers for development in agriculture, one of our greatest challenges is enabling change at scale. Our job, primarily, is to do groundbreaking science in close collaboration with beneficiaries. Sometimes this works astoundingly, as 50 years of CGIAR innovations show. In other cases, however, interventions provide benefits at smaller scales. There is nothing wrong with that. But today’s climate, nutrition and food
By Jawoo Koo and Weston Anderson Food, land, and water systems face daunting challenges in the future, and the body of research exploring these challenges is growing rapidly. This note is part of a series developed by the CGIAR Foresight Initiative to summarize what we know today about the future of various aspects of food systems. The goal of these notes is

In line with the theme for International Women’s Day 2024, “Invest in Women, Accelerate Progress,” Researchers from ICARDA and Western University, Canada, under the auspices of the CGIAR Initiative, HER+, which aims to achieve climate resilience through gender equality and social inclusion in Global South food systems, take stock of public policies and local governance mechanisms that improve women’s participation
As a global community, we are grappling with a difficult task: to ramp up food production without increasing greenhouse gas emissions and simultaneously reducing them further. Producing enough food to beat hunger is not enough. Now, we need more, affordable and nutritious food for more people, and we need to do it with a lighter footprint. Currently, the technology to
Communities across Africa are facing the combined pressures of climate change, conflict and forced displacement. These pressures are not occurring in a vacuum, but rather interact with and exacerbate each other. In many regions, climate hazards are deepening existing vulnerabilities, straining social cohesion, and undermining governance systems already under stress. Against this backdrop, CGIAR and UNHCR jointly organized a bilingual
