This significant event, organized by the CGIAR Research Initiative on Diversification in East and Southern Africa (“Ukama Ustawi”), the CGIAR Portfolio Performance Unit (PPU), and ILRI, facilitated a deep dive into advancing the science and practice of scaling agricultural innovations to transform Africa’s agrifood systems. Participants included representatives from 8 CGIAR centers and 24 external organizations, collaborating in a series of plenary sessions, panel discussions, and interactive workshops. This 4-page summary distills the key outcomes and insights from the event, capturing the collaborative spirit and strategic discussions aimed at scaling agricultural impact responsibly and effectively across the continent.Item Process for Developing, Tracking and Reporting of Management Responses to Evaluations(Report, 2024-04-23) CGIARThis document defines the roles and responsibilities related to developing, tracking, and reporting on Management Responses to evaluations and aligns with the requirement to prepare and submit Management Responses to Evaluations commissioned by the System Council,1 outlined further in the CGIAR Evaluation Policy (2022) and the accompanying guideline entitled, Management Engagement and Response: Process and Performance Evaluations in CGIAR (2023).Item Agriculture(Book Chapter, 2023) Mukherji, Aditi; Arndt, Claudia; Arango, Jacobo; Flintan, Fiona E.; Derera, John; Francesconi, Wendy; Jones, Sarah K.; Loboguerrero Rodriguez, Ana María; Merrey, Douglas J.; Mockshell, Jonathan; Quintero, Marcela; Mulat, Daniel Girma; Ringler, Claudia; Ronchi, Loraine; Sanchez, Manuel Ernesto Narjes; Sapkota, Tek Bahadur; Thilsted, Shakuntala H.The Breakthrough Agenda was launched by 45 world leaders at COP 26 and is a commitment to work together this decade to accelerate innovation and deployment of clean technologies, making them accessible and affordable for all this decade. To kick-start this Agenda, countries endorsed Breakthrough goals to make clean technologies and sustainable practices more affordable, accessible and attractive than their alternatives by 2030 in the power, road transport, steel, hydrogen and agriculture sectors. This report also covers the buildings and cement sectors, where new breakthroughs are being considered. The Breakthrough Agenda establishes an annual cycle to track developments towards these goals, identify where further co-ordinated international action is urgently needed to accelerate progress and then galvanise public and private international action behind these specific priorities in order to make these transitions quicker, cheaper and easier for all. The 2023 Report includes a chapter written by CGIAR scientists.Item With Science We Can: Investing in a Food, Nutrition & Climate Secure Future(Brochure, 2023-11-23) CGIAR System OrganizationItem With Science We Can: Investing in a Food, Nutrition & Climate Secure Future – Summary(Brochure, 2023-11-23) CGIAR System OrganizationItem Assessment of CGIAR contributions to the 2022 aspirational System Level Outcome targets(Report, 2023-08-30) Templeton, DeborahItem Achieving agricultural breakthrough: A deep dive into seven technological areas(Report, 2023-09-14) Mukherji, Aditi; Arndt, Claudia; Arango, Jacobo; Flintan, Fiona E.; Derera, John; Francesconi, Wendy; Jones, Sarah K.; Loboguerrero Rodriguez, Ana María; Merrey, Douglas J.; Mockshell, Jonathan; Quintero, Marcela; Mulat, Daniel Girma; Ringler, Claudia; Ronchi, Loraine; Sanchez, Manuel Ernesto Narjes; Sapkota, Tek Bahadur; Thilsted, Shakuntala H.Item Boost Nature-Positive Production(Book Chapter, 2023-01) Hodson de Jaramillo, Elizabeth; Niggli, Urs; Kitajima, Kaoru; Lal, Rattan; Sadoff, ClaudiaItem Seven Actions to Limit the Impact of War in Ukraine on Food Security(Report, 2022-05-05) CGIARItem The 36 Golden Eggs for the 2021 Transfer Market Place(Report, 2021-06) CGIAR System OrganizationItem A 4-point CGIAR response plan on COVID-19(Brief, 2020-07) CGIAR System OrganizationItem Responding to COVID-19: CGIAR's contribution to global response, recovery and resilience(Report, 2020-06-22) CGIAR System OrganizationThe COVID-19 pandemic, itself likely the result of unsustainable food, land and water systems, is exposing weaknesses in food systems, societies and economies around the world. The health risks of the pandemic, combined with the social and economic impacts of measures to stop the spread of the disease (e.g. social isolation directives, travel bans, border closures) are posing threats to food, nutrition and water security, as well as continued progress on global goals to end poverty and hunger, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Without substantial emergency relief, 140 million people could fall into extreme poverty, potentially increasing hunger and malnutrition for millions. Women, youth, migrant workers and poor urban populations are among those most significantly impacted. The global response to the pandemic must be swift and science-based, harnessing new and existing knowledge. Solutions need to be coordinated across sectors to provide immediate response and assistance for those most in need, ongoing and inclusive support in recovery and, perhaps most importantly, future resilience to all shocks–including climate extremes. The COVID-19 crisis presents an unprecedented opportunity for humanity to “build back better,” particularly in the food systems at the root of the pandemic. The crisis has demonstrated how quickly society can fail – but also that collective positive change in human behavior is possible at scale and speed. CGIAR will join its network of partners to co-lead global debate and action on what “building back better” looks like for food, water and land systems.
