🔸 Droughts
🔸 Floods
🔸 Typhoons
We must focus on predicting and acting ahead of crises before they unfold.

Why do proven agricultural innovations still fail to reach the communities that need them?
Ismahane Elouafi, @CGIAR_EMD, argues that Africa must connect proven innovation with the finance, partnerships and systems needed to achieve impact at scale.
