| Summary: | One of the several side-events CGIAR organized as part of this year’s World Food Prize Borlaug Dialogue was dedicated to Egypt’s plans for growing the climate resilience of agriculture and food systems in its role as host and presidency of the UN climate talks in Sharm El-Sheikh (COP27, Nov. 6-18), as well as the role CGIAR is playing in them. The Oct. 20 virtual seminar, convened by IFPRI, the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), and CGIAR’s National Policies and Strategies Initiative, examined the climate change challenges Egypt’s agrifood sector is facing and how the focus on climate c in the new CGIAR research portfolio can help increase climate resilience in Egypt and beyond.
