1 The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) is a strategic collaboration between the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) and the Earth System Science Partnership (ESSP). CCAFS: the partnership

2 Agreed criteria for collaborative CGIAR-ESSP research (from the Oxford w/s, Feb 2007) Jointly recognised as a priority research programme by both science communities and relevant to stakeholders (researchers, farmers, resource managers, donors, policy makers, etc…). Addresses key knowledge gaps related to food security, sustainability and development. Requires active, large-scale institutional collaboration between the two science communities combining social and natural systems, at multiple scales of time/space. Maximises the chance for success in delivering solutions to climate change adaptation and mitigation for agriculture and food security that are based on innovative science outputs.

3 Project outline 1: Stress collab between GEC and devel ag science: Science content integrating (interdisciplinarity): Ag / resource mgmt Climate change / uncertainty Institutions / governance Spatial / temporal scales Gender / social differentiation Science content relating to outcomes for: Food security (availability, access, utilisation, stability) Environment (hydrol, biodiversity, BGC incl. GHGs, …) Livelihoods (socioeconomic capitals)

4 Project outline 2: Stress collab between GEC and devel ag science: Selling points: Development value GEC science value (inc interdisciplinarity) * Ag science value How advancing CC agenda * How helps deliver CCAFS agenda Link to stakeholders * * = special interest to GEC donors (Belmont Forum) Funding modes: 1)100k modular pilots addressing key activities in CCAFS plan 2)1-2 $M / 2-3 yr project

5 1.TODAY: Agree main elements of 4 page CN for detailed planning workshop (~$50k) in early 2012 –Feedback after lunch –PP Presentation at 16:00 of main science and selling points 2.BY MID JULY: Submit CN to CCAFS Copenhagen, suggesting potential donors to discuss with 3.Ccafs@life.ku.dk 4.BY END SEP: CCAFS CPH decision and feedback from donors 5.EARLY 2012: Detailed planning WS to draft proposal for project (2-3 yrs; $1-2M) 6.MID 2012: Start project/pilots
