Creating an enabling environment for developing and deploying market-ready science-based innovations for sustainable food systems
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/141592
Abstract
Food-system innovations can play a crucial role in meeting increasing food demands, minimising supply-chain disruptions, and mitigating the impacts of climate change. They can also significantly contribute to economic growth and development. However, many of these innovations face scaling challenges, and therefore often remain suspended in their pre-…

Decision support tools for agricultural adaptation in Africa
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/141629
Abstract
Extensive and strategic investments are needed to adapt African agriculture to climate change. In 2020, US$2.8 billion were committed to adaptation in the agriculture, forestry and land use sector. This figure is likely to rise as the public and private sectors focus efforts on national commitments towards the Paris Agreement (the so-called Paris Alignment) and all African countries prioritize agricultural adaptation. Design of…
