CCAFS Intermediate Development Outcomes

1. Increased and stable access to food commodities by rural and urban poor (“Food security”).

2. Increased control by women and other marginalized groups of assets, inputs, decision-making and benefits (“Gender and social differentiation”).

3. Increased capacity in low income communities to adapt to climate variability, shocks and longer term changes (“Adaptive capacity”).

4. Additional policies and institutions supporting sustainable, resilient and equitable agricultural and natural resources management developed and adopted by agricultural, conservation and development organizations, national governments and international bodies (“Policies and institutions”).

5. Increased carbon sequestration and reduction of greenhouse gases through improved agriculture and natural resources management (“Mitigation”)

6

Flagship 1: Climate-smart practices

1. Improved technologies, practices and portfolios2. Methods and approaches for equitable local

adaptation planning and governance, including transformative options

3. Innovative incentives and mechanisms for scaling up and out

7

Flagship 2: Climate Information Services and Climate-Informed

Safety Nets

1. Climate-based methods and tools for seasonal agricultural prediction and early warning

2. Knowledge and methods for climate information and advisory services

3. Food security safety nets and policy interventions (including insurance)

8

Flagship 3: Low emissions agricultural development

1. Decision support for assessing mitigation priorities, baselines and trade-offs;

2. Methods and data for quantifying small-scale farming emissions and mitigation options

3. Analysis for improved mitigation implementation mechanisms (NAMAs, climate finance, accountability for sustainable commodities, innovation systems)

9

Flagship 4: Policies and institutions for climate-resilient

food systems

1. Data, models and scenarios to understand impacts of climate change

2. Decision support tools for targeting policy development and making investment choices

3. Analysis of strengths and weaknesses of current and emerging policy

4. Analysis and experimentation concerning novel decision-making processes

Cross-cutting research theme: Linking knowledge and action

• Integrated in Flagships• Identifying Innovative processes & products to

foster outcomes– Partnership strategies– Capacity strengthening strategies– Social learning– Gender and social differentiation– Communication and dissemination

Science on CSA practices informs

policy development in

min. 10 countries

5 major policy agencies using CCAFS science

inform their CSA investments

20 million additional farmers, at least

50% women, have climate-smart

practices

2018 intermediate targets

25 countries increased

investments in CSA by 50%

Flagship 1: Climate-smart

agricultural practices

Flagship 3: Low-

emissions agricultural

development

Flagship 2: Climate

information services and

climate-informed

safety nets

Flagship 4:Policies and institutions for climate-

resilient food systems

2024 targets Intermediate development outcomes

Adaptive capacity enhanced of 10

million farmers, at least 50% women, through advisories

and safety nets

20% reduction of GHG emissions

intensities while enhancing food

security in at least 7 countries

5 countries have agricultural

NAMAs or low emission

development policies informed by CCAFS science

5 major food system agencies

using tools informed by

CCAFS science

13

Work will be regionally implemented

But 20-30% work elsewhere where it

helps deliver outcomes
