| Sumario: | The CGIAR 2030 Research and Innovation Strategy identifies adaptation and mitigation as part of five Sustainable Development Goal (SDG)-focused Impact Areas. The Strategy suggests how CGIAR’s research, innovation and capacity development can contribute toward achieving collective global targets for climate change adaptation and mitigation. CGIAR’s action on climate change addresses the risks to food systems, the impact of food systems emissions, and the potential for integrated solutions.
The 2022-24 Portfolio, three Science Group[1]—Genetic Innovation (GI), Resilient Agrifood Systems (RAFS), and System Transformation (ST) comprised 33 Initiatives. Evaluative insights and lessons on climate change from the evaluations of GI, RAFS, and ST SGs are presented in this report. The Independent Advisory and Evaluation Service (IAES) conducted the three SG evaluations under the 2022‒24 Multi-Year Evaluation Workplan (2021; re-confirmed 2024) and in alignment with the evaluations’ Terms of Reference (ToR).
