"We have to work together, we can't just talk about working together." “The biggest need that we need to address is: how do we get technologies to farmers through institutional innovation?” @Agnes_Kalibata, @AGRA_Africa #GFSS23

Fascinating graphic! Nations meeting human needs Vs environmental damage
Kate Raworth@KateRaworth3 Feb 2023
Seeking Twitter hive mind! Names matter - so to get beyond erroneous 'developed / developing' countries, we're proposing new country clusters, in terms of their journey towards living in the Doughnut. For starters: Rise-Shift-Fulfil-Reduce. What else do you suggest?...

A new piece of research looking at changing incomes amongst farmers in East Africa. Agriculture can help some escape poverty, but doesn't help the poorest. Something else is needed to escape the extreme poverty trap. But what? tinyurl.com/48tj79sr

Anything we can learn here, CGIAR colleagues? IMHO We like to apply systems thinking in our models and analysis, but not in our project management
K4DD@K4D_info7 Jul 2022
How can #SystemsThinking be applied to #InternationalDevelopment? 💭 In this report, Jacky Hicks ( @IDS_UK) looks at examples of various applications of the approach by @USAID, @wateraid, @FCDOGovUK & others. Take a look:👉 buff.ly/3IaAwe7 @SusanDavisWASH @oxfamgb

We interviewed nine thousand farmers in Africa and Asia about how COVID-19 affected their lives. Massive income loss, reduced food consumption. No government support schemes. 😬😬😬 doi.org/10.1016/j.agsy.2022.…

Nice paper showing that crop and livestock integration opens up possibilities for lower environmental impact. #rhomis data fed into the #farmdesign model. Tidy.

Powerful infographic! Where does all the food go?
Christina Hicks@ChristinacHicks23 Sep 2021
We produce more than enough food to feed the world But where does it go? 40%! of food eaten in Sub S Africa is starchy veg (elsewhere its ~10%) 1% is fish, meat & poultry It is vital micronutrient rich food, grown, harvested or fished locally remain local. #UNFSS2021 @newint
where the food in the world flows. We already produce enough
