This learning brief is part of a series to capture the process, progress and lessons from CCAFS in its endeavor to plan, implement and deliver research outcomes. Since the last of these learning
notes was published1, the process for finalizing the impact pathways (IPs) was considerably simplified...

Lessons and Insights from CCAFS Results-Based Management Trial
The livestock sector globally consttutes a development conundrum: the benefts and the costs are both mult-faceted and highly context-specifc, and their honest appraisal defes simple analysis and easy categorizaton. In the past, changes in the demand for livestock products have been largely driven...

In 2011, CCAFS carried out baseline surveys (household survey, a village study and an organizational survey) in 21 research sites across 17 countries within its five focus regions, using standardized baseline tools in each site. Seven years after the implementation of the baseline studies, the CC...

CCAFS reporting and evaluation in a results-based management framework
There is a 95% chance that warming will exceed 2°C by the end of the century (Raftery et al. 2017). Global crop productivity is projected to fall by 5-10 % per degree of warming (Challinor et al. 2014), with even greater losses likely for some crops in some areas. The challenge of meeting future ...

A 6 part action plan to transform food systems under climate change, Creative actions to accelerate progress towards the SDGs
According to the IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report, changes in the climate over the last 30 years have already reduced global agricultural production by 1 – 5 % per decade relative to a baseline without climate change. In addition, recent studies indicate that even a 2 degrees increase in global tem...
