Infrastructure in river basins is essential to achieving several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 2 on zero hunger, SDG 6 on water and sanitation, and SDG 7 on affordable and clean energy.
Climate change affects every aspect of the food system, including all nodes along agri-food value chains from production to consumption, the food environments in which people live, and outcomes, such as diets and livelihoods.
There is growing recognition that water insecurity – the inability to reliably access sufficient water for all household uses – is commonly experienced globally and has myriad adverse consequences for human well-being.
Little is known about the effects of urbanization on women’s attitudes toward intimate partner violence (IPV).
Climate change, poverty, and low environmental education have contributed to increasing vulnerability of poor farmers in Mali. This study was done to determine the impact of low-cost adaptation strategies on resilience and welfare.
Irrigation, and especially farmer-led irrigation, is considered to be a promising option for enhancing agricultural productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa.
This study investigated the trait preferences for cassava in the context of climate change and conflict stressors among value-chain actors in Nigeria to strengthen social inclusion and the community-resilience outcomes from breeding programs.
Global health and development interventions often are predicated on the reallocation of women's time for the achievement of program objectives; yet research and programs have paid limited attention to women's preferences for and agency over their
Climate change poses a greater threat for more exposed and vulnerable countries, communities and social groups.
Women and girls in poorer countries are affected in particular ways by the multiple crises the world is currently facing.
In India, the production of rice and wheat account for more than 80% of its total agricultural water use. As farming is highly dependent on water availability, rapidly receding water levels require urgent measures to manage withdrawals.
CONTEXT: India's agricultural systems are increasingly affected by climate change's adverse effects.
This paper addresses women's empowerment in agriculture, innovations in its measurement, and emerging evidence. We discuss the evolution of the conceptualization and measurement of women's empowerment and gender equality since 2010.
Agri-environmental schemes (AESs) are increasingly implemented to promote the adoption of environmentally friendly practices by farmers.
Development programs often rely on locally hired agents for service delivery, especially for interventions promoting agricultural practices, health, and nutrition.
Freshwater resources (FWRs) are under enormous stress due to human activities and climate change.
Integrated landscape approaches (ILA) aim to reconcile multiple, often competing, interests across agriculture, nature conservation, and other land uses.
Climatic shocks are exerting pressure on livelihoods of Zimbabwe's smallholder farmer—who irrigate only 2% of their farms.
Mongolia’s projected warming is far above the global average and could exceed 5 °C by the end of the century.
