Agrifood Systems for Climate Resilience and Gender Inclusivity: A strategic Review of the Evidence

Abstract

It is crucial to address the impact of climate change on agricultural production and to enhance the resilience of farmers and farming practices in order to ensure global food security in the future. Mitigation and adaptation both present significant governance challenges. Without effective policy solutions, the World Bank estimates that climate-induced decreases in crop yields could push 43 million people in Africa into poverty and food insecurity (Baptista et al., 2022). Effectively governing agrifood systems will be vital for securing them against the impacts of climate change.
