In the mid‐2000s, several highly‐cited papers called for improving conceptual coherence and methodological transparency in vulnerability research to support greater policy relevance. As reducing vulnerability rises on political agendas, identifying empirically validated measures will become incre...


Crane, Todd A.Delaney, AogánTamás, Peter A.Chesterman, SabrinaEricksen, Polly J.[A systematic review of local vulnerability to climate change in developing country agriculture]A systematic review of local vulnerability to climate change in developing country agriculture

We apply a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature to assess constraining and enabling factors to the uptake of medium- to long-term climate information in a wide range of sectoral investment and planning decisions. Common applications of climate information are shown to relate to adaptatio...


Jones, LindseyChampalle, ClaraChesterman, SabrinaCramer, LauraCrane, Todd A.[Identifying constraining and enabling factors to the uptake of medium- and long-term climate information in decision making]Identifying constraining and enabling factors to the uptake of medium- and long-term climate information in decision making

There is increasing interest in using systematic review to synthesize evidence on the social and environmental effects of and adaptations to climate change. Use of systematic review for evidence in this field is complicated by the heterogeneity of methods used and by uneven reporting. In order to...

Wijk, Mark T. vanTavenner, KatieFraval, SimonHammond, JamesBaltenweck, IsabelleTeufel, NilsKihoro, EstherHaan, Nicoline C. deEtten, Jacob vanSteinke, J.Baines, D.Carpena, P.Skirrow, T.Rosenstock, Todd S.Lamanna, C.Ng'endo, M.Chesterman, SabrinaNamoi, N.Manda, L.[Intensifying inequality? Gendered trends in commercializing and diversifying smallholder farming systems in East Africa]Intensifying inequality? Gendered trends in commercializing and diversifying smallholder farming systems in East Africa

Climate change will affect the ability to deliver not only the quantity but also the type and quality of food necessary for nutritious diets. Global and regional 'climate-smart agriculture' initiatives offer an opportunity to mitigate climate impacts and improve nutrition outcomes at scale. The S...


Rosenstock, Todd S.Lamanna, ChristineDeRenzi, BrianChesterman, SabrinaKadiyala, SuneethaNg’endo, MaryChibuye, KayokwaChoga, NgonidzasheWijk, Mark T. van[Surveillance of Climate-smart Agriculture for Nutrition (SCAN): Innovations for monitoring climate, agriculture and nutrition at scale]Surveillance of Climate-smart Agriculture for Nutrition (SCAN): Innovations for monitoring climate, agriculture and nutrition at scale

The extent and implications of under nutrition in Sub-Saharan Africa have catalyzed political action and programs on the ground. For example, the United Nations has declared a decade of action (2016-2026) and the Sustainable Development Goals have set ambitious targets to end hunger and undernutr...


Chesterman, SabrinaLamanna, ChristineHammond, JimNamoi, NictorWakelin, OliverNg’endo, MaryWijk, Mark T. vanRosenstock, Todd S.[Co-designed solutions for collecting food & nutrition security data with mobile devices: What worked (and did not) from a NGO, government and research partnership]Co-designed solutions for collecting food & nutrition security data with mobile devices: What worked (and did not) from a NGO, government and research partnership

Growth in mobile phone access and ownership presents an opportunity to collect more data, more frequently, from more people, and for less money. There are multiple ways to collect data with mobile phones (SMS, voice calls, etc.), each with particular strengths and weaknesses. n The best mode of d...

We carry out a structured review of the peer-reviewed literature to assess the factors that constrain and enable the uptake of long-term climate information in a wide range of sectoral investment and planning decisions. Common applications of long-term climate information are shown to relate to u...

This technical paper details findings and outcomes from the workshop hosted by the Climate Change Unit of Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries of Kenya, along with the FAO, ICRAF and CCAFS. The process engaged stakeholders from research, practice and policy and to interactively share ...


Chesterman, SabrinaNeely, Constance[Evidence and policy implications of climate-smart agriculture in Kenya]Evidence and policy implications of climate-smart agriculture in Kenya

Background: ‘Climate-smart agriculture’ (CSA)—agriculture and food systems that sustainably increase food production, improve resilience (or adaptive capacity) of farming systems, and mitigate climate change when possible—has quickly been integrated into the global development agenda. However, th...
