Description

Description CCAFS is a research initiative of the CGIAR (a global agriculture research partnership) and Future Earth (a research initiative for sustainability). CCAFS joins together the world's best researchers to identify and address the most important interactions, synergies and trade-offs between agriculture and climate change and to address agriculture in the context of climate variability, climate change and uncertainty about future climate conditions.
Objectives The over-arching objectives of CCAFS are: (1) To identify and test pro-poor adaptation and mitigation practices, technologies and policies for food systems, adaptive capacity and rural livelihoods; and (2) To provide diagnosis and analysis that will ensure cost effective investments, the inclusion of agriculture in climate change policies, and the inclusion of climate issues in agricultural policies, from the sub-national to the global level in a way that brings benefits to the rural poor.
Activities Three place-based Themes will identify and test (through adaptive research) technologies, practices and policies, and will enhance capacity, to decrease the vulnerability of rural communities to a variable and changing climate: Theme 1 Adaptation to Progressive

Climate Change; Theme 2 Adaptation through Managing Climate Risk; and Theme 3 Pro-poor Climate Change Mitigation. Theme 4 Integration for Decision Making provides a framework for the whole of CCAFS, ensures effective engagement with rural communities and institutional and policy stakeholders, grounds CCAFS in the policy context, and provides, through a demand-driven process, downscaled analyses and tools for future climates.
