In celebration of International Youth Day, IWMI and BongoHive hosted a Demonstration Day in partnership with the Accelerating Impacts of CGIAR Climate Research in Africa (AICCRA) project in Zambia.

Aaron Sundsmo, Winrock’s associate vice president for Agriculture, Resilience and Water, spoke about Winrock’s approach to strengthening water security and supporting climate change adaptation through climate-resilient agriculture practices at Devex’s WASH Works 2023.

In 2022, the world faced multiple crises. Disruptions to food systems continued due to the protracted pandemic, natural disasters, civil unrest, political instability, and the impacts of climate change.

The objectives of the Policy Dialogue are to: 1. Share empirical evidence on the importance of climate smart agriculture in transitioning to resilient farming communities in SSA. 2. Develop recommendations on how to build climate-smart and resilient farming systems in SSA at scale 3. Networking, and promoting partnerships and action.

The CGIAR Food Systems Accelerator Kick-off event took place in Kigali, Rwanda on 22 February 2023 to unveil its first cohort of agribusinesses from East and Southern Africa.

IWMI will further support its government partners in Zambia with flood damage assessment and aid recovery efforts, following the extreme flooding events across the country particularly in Southern, Central, Eastern and Lusaka provinces.

The climate crisis is a water crisis but governments around the world are still not putting water security front and centre, according to a water governance expert.

Zimbabwe has been chosen alongside three other countries in Est and Southern Africa under a programme meant to transition farmers from maize-mixed systems to sustainably intensified, diversified, and de-risked agrifood systems.
