On April 12, 2024, CGIAR marked a significant milestone with the official launch of its Climate Community of Practice (COP). As part of the Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Impact Area Platform, this initiative brings together over 600 scientists from various CGIAR centers, forming a collaborative hub for climate-focused research and action. With the COP's inauguration, the Platform will initiate smaller thematic working groups, fostering the advancement of climate knowledge within the CGIAR network. Looking ahead, the Platform aims to broaden its reach by incorporating climate scientists from outside CGIAR, ensuring a diverse and inclusive approach to tackling climate challenges. Stay tuned for updates on how you can get involved.

Weve all been there; pages and pages of a company's terms and conditions are presented to us. Were given the option to read these pages of jargon to understand how our data is collected and why. We know we must accept them in order to move on and make use of this service. We have gotten so used to this that most of us opt to accept without reading.

It has been a while ago but prior to the registration deadline on March 16th, promotional events were in full swing across all universities to raise awareness about the Food Systems Innovation Challenge. One of these universities is Lukenya University in Kenya where more than 500 students attended the information session of the Food Systems Innovation Challenge. We asked the coordinator of the university, Judith Wufala, to reflect on the event.

The Netherlands Working Group on Nutrition (NWGN) and Netherlands Food Partnership (NFP) recently hosted an expert workshop in The Hague. The event focused on operationalizing sustainable healthy diets in the context of climate change, with a particular emphasis on the role of Animal Source Foods (ASF) in low and middle-income countries (LMICs).

In the Food Systems Innovation challenge 18 teams representing nine univeristies will compete for the best design of a food system innovation. The teams are challenged to design a project plan and to implement it during the challenge period from April 2024 to September 2024. One of the criteria for the project design is its alignment with the country's national pathways to sustainable food systems. However, what exactly constitutes a national pathway?

“National Pathways to sustainable food systems”

In the Food Systems Innovation challenge , 18 teams representing nine universities engage in a competition to design a food system innovation which is in alignment with the national pathways of a specific country. While we are working towards the start of the Food Systems Innovation challenge we would like to share an example of an innovation that can be supported through the challenge. Just like this year Lukenya University in Kenya also joined WUR Student Challenges in 2021. Their Hydropan team, consisting of five members, came up with the innovative climate-smart hydroelectric technology: the hydropan.

Burundi

Dairy

The aim of the visit was to explore possible collaborations and projects in dairy development in the country and to determine how NEADAP products can contribute to these efforts. The team visited various organizations, including ISABU, IFAD, Twitezimbere, Modern Dairy Burundi, Lifeway, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Kiryama cooperative.

Based on discussions with stakeholders, several NEADAP products appear to be appropriate for implementation in the Burundi context. A Dairy Sustainability Assessment Tool (DSAT) workshop will be organized to identify bottlenecks in sustainability; the Rumen8 tool for feed rationing will be introduced; and small-scale yoghurt production will be assessed under the PADANE project. Extension services focusing on forage and silage production are also potential areas for collaboration. NEADAP plans to continue discussions with the SNV PADANE project and other potential partners, and we welcome additional suggestions.
