The future of food security, environments and livelihoods in Eastern Africa: four socio-economic scenarios
Research and action toward better food security, environmental health and rural livelihoods under climate change in the developing world must deal with interacting natural and human systems change processes across multiple dimensions (e.g. biophysical, economic, policy, temporal) and scales (e.g....

The role of regional scenarios in CCAFS cross-scale research, planning and action toward improved food security, environments and livelihoods
Climate change impacts on agriculture have become evident, and threaten the achievement of global food security. On the other hand, the agricultural sector itself is a cause of climate change, and if actions are not taken, the sector might impede the achievement of global climate goals. Science-p...

Exploring farmer preference shaping in international agricultural climate change adaptation regimes
In this paper we focus on the issue of how climate change affects the way that agricultural systems
and the people that manage and govern them need to change in the next 20 years in order to
achieve food security, and how FAO and CGIAR can support that change. We build on a huge body
of lit...
