The concept of adaptive social protection has evolved over the past two decades, and examples of practice point to significant potential for accelerating the interconnection between social protection mechanisms and climate-smart practices and adaption. However, there is a lack of evidence on how actual practices can and should change, and on resilience outcomes.

In many low- and middle-income countries, sewage sludge generated from wastewater treatment systems has potential environmental and health hazards.

This document synthesizes key impact pathways for adaptations in agriculture sectors. Recognizing the evolving nature of climate-related risks, it serves a crucial role in assisting practitioners, researchers, and users in navigating the extensive array of possibilities within agricultural adaptation.

Although livelihoods within agrifood systems (AFS) are generally vulnerable to the impacts of climate
change, women bear a disproportionate burden from rising climatic stressors. In agrarian regions in
the Global South, women face unique and intersectional vulnerabilities that limit their voice in

Women are vulnerable to adverse climate change impacts and their active involvement and decision-making in
the climate change and agrifood governance is limited, especially in the Global South. New research based on a
strategic review of literature conducted as part of CGIAR research initiative HER+: Harnessing gender and social

Germplasm exchange from international genebanks and breeding programs is vital for successful crop improvement programs. More than 10,000 different accessions of wheat, barley, lentil, faba bean, chickpea, grasspea, and pasture and forage crops are distributed by the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) every year to around 70 countries.

This Info Note reports on the Climate Security Sensitivity Tool (CSST) case study application for the Mercy Corps' Regional Livestock Program in Eastern Africa. It highlights the recommendations formulated by the CSST for the implementation of this transboundary project bridging Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia and reports on the practitioners’ feedback on these results.

For the 1.5 billion people living in fragile and conflict-affected settings,
livelihood challenges are compounded by climate change, unsustainable
resource consumption, poor governance, and weak social cohesion. In
Mozambique, a significant 45% of its inhabitants live below the poverty line,
and a staggering 80% rely on subsistence agriculture, a sector highly
