Identifying and Using CGIAR's Comparative Advantage por CGIAR Independent Science for Development Council

“…This Technical Note first introduces the CA concept, its aims and benefits, and illustrates how gain from specialization occurs. Then, it reflects on possible sources of CA, and how broad categories (i.e., incentives, human capital, biophysical capital (such as labs, genetic material, and equipment), and social capital) can help identifying outputs in which CGIAR is likely to have CA. …”

Adolescents. capabilities and aspirations across gender and generations in Amhara, Ethiopia por Gebre, B., Lecoutere, Els, Jones, N.

“…The study adopts a capability approach with a gender and generationing development lens as a framework and relies on qualitative data collected through community- and mixed-generation group discussions. The study illustrates that, even if institutional and structural barriers became less stringent over time, cumulative gender- and age-related obstacles – some rooted in beliefs, norms, traditions and relations – hindered the expansion of adolescents’ capability success, consistently more so for girls than boys. …”

Demand for complementary financial and technological tools for managing drought risk por Ward, Patrick S., Spielman, David J., Ortega, David L.

“…In this study we examine farmers’ preferences for two distinct tools that allow them to manage drought risk: weather index insurance and a recently released drought-tolerant rice variety. We illustrate how these tools can independently address drought risk and demonstrate the additional benefits gained by combining them into a complementary risk management product. …”
