Event IFPRI Policy Seminar Learning Support for a Multi-Country Climate Resilience Programme for Food Security Organized by CGIAR with support from World Food Programme (WFP) and The Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad) November 5, 2024 The Learning Support for a Sub-Saharan Africa Multi-Country Climate Resilience Program for Food Security, launched in 2023, aims to enhance food security and climate resilience across 14 African countries. This collaboration among CGIAR, the World Food Programme, and the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad) has three pillars: scaling disaster risk financing, transforming food systems with sustainable school meals and clean cooking, and supporting smallholder farmers. This work leverages CGIAR’s extensive experience in strategic program support, impact evaluations, and knowledge product development, and integrates the CGIAR’s Fragility, Conflict, and Migration (FCM) and Seed Equal initiatives. Ongoing efforts include strategic reviews, resilience assessments, and evaluations of WFP’s nutritional and crisis resilience interventions. The event aims to disseminate research findings and showcase the partnership’s significant contributions to food security and climate resilience. Speakers from CGIAR, WFP, and Norad will present an overview of the program and highlights of research projects and findings, followed by a panel discussion by experts from several African countries.
