From 30 September to 5 October 2024, twelve Community Rangeland Health Workers (CRHWs) from Ethiopia’s Somali region (Moyale and Filtu districts) and Borana Zone (Moyale and Miyo districts) participated in a training program to equip them with the knowledge to promote rangeland health, prevent invasive species, and manage natural resources sustainably.  The training covered rangeland health monitoring, invasive species identification

By Saurav Pradhananga, Santosh Nepal, Mamata Aryal, and Dinesh Parajuli Nepal faces severe environmental challenges that threaten ecosystems and the livelihoods of people. Climate change is aggravating water scarcity, food insecurity, energy deficits, and ecosystem degradation. However, hydrological models and other hydro-meteorological tools hold the potential to inform policy and practice to address interlinked challenges across the water, energy, food,

The CGIAR Accelerate for Impact Platform (A4IP) is pleased to present The State of the Agri-, Food-, and Climate-Tech Innovation Ecosystem in Morocco, 2025—an in-depth look at the country’s growing innovation landscape and its potential to address pressing agricultural challenges. Over the past two decades, Morocco’s agricultural sector has undergone a significant transformation, characterized by the expansion of irrigated land,

Read the blog post in Spanish here. In light of the current climate crisis, we need to profoundly rethink the way we feed the world. Today’s predominant methods of food production have proved to be devastating for our planet; the highly intensified farming systems around the world—and the resulting land degradation, biodiversity, and ecosystem loss—are key contributors to climate change.

Climate resilience is a vital pillar of sustainable development, especially in regions where communities rely on rainfed agriculture and pastoralism, such as the Turkana and West Pokot counties of Kenya. Resilience includes the capacity of communities, ecosystems, and economies to recover from the adverse effects of climate-related shocks in a timely and effective manner. By strengthening climate resilience, we not

ShambaShield is a CGIAR project that seeks to bridge the gap between agro-advisories and financial services through design research, integrating existing innovations into a cohesive, user-centered framework. This initiative goes beyond addressing farmers’ needs—it examines the broader ecosystem of agricultural practices, financial systems, and climate resilience to uncover opportunities for effective collaboration and bundling of solutions. By applying design research

In an effort to build a more connected and intelligent global agricultural research ecosystem, CGIAR convened a Data Harmonization Workshop from June 17–20, 2025, at CIMMYT headquarters in Texcoco, Mexico. The primary goal of the workshop was to develop a practical framework for making data across all CGIAR Centers FAIR—Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. This effort is driven by increased

The WLE-hosted webinar series “From research to resilience” took place through the month of October. Eight webinars assessed the progress of research for development, captured lessons learned, and identified scientifically proven tools and approaches that climate-vulnerable communities can adopt to secure more inclusive, sustainable and resilient futures. About the webinar series Informed by the experience and insights of WLE and its partners, and the solutions the program has
