    Researchers of ICARDA are slowly improving towards participatory and community-based approaches to incorporate users’ perspectives. This not only increases the efficiency and effectiveness of agricultural research, but delivers what farmers want. Development of integrated crop-livestock production systems in the low-rainfall areas of West Asia and North Africa has shown the importance of the community approach in the sustainable management of collective property resources, such as rangelands and water. This approach has been widely adopted by national programs in dry areas.

    This reports summarizes and synthesizes activities and achievements of the CGIAR Challenge Program on Water and Food (CPWF) through the end of 2007. The CPWF is an intiative of the CGIAR designed to take on the global challenge of water scarcity and food security.

    Because vulnerability is a conceptual construct rather than a directly observable phenomenon,

    most vulnerability assessments measure a set of “vulnerability indicators”. In order to identify

    the core approaches and range of variation in the field, we conducted a systematic literature

    review on local vulnerability to climate change. The systematic review entailed an

    identification of frameworks, concepts, and operationalizations and a transparency assessment

    of their reporting. Three fully defined relevant frameworks of vulnerability were identified:

    This sourcebook entitled “Addressing water,food and poverty problems together: Methods,tools and lessons” is part of a wider process to capitalize on results from the Phase 1 of CPWF (2004-2008).

    Phase 1 of CPWF cast its net widely. Sixty-eight individual research projects were carried out in ten river basins around the world. The learning was immense. Unfortunately, many Phase 1 lessons and experiences are locked away in people’s minds or hidden in long technical and scientific reports that are difficult to access, particularly for non-researchers.

    G-Range is a global model that simulates generalized changes in rangelands through time,

    created with support from the International Livestock Research Institute. Spatial data and a set

    of parameters that control plant growth and other ecological attributes in landscape units

    combine with computer code to represent ecological process such as soil nutrient and water

    dynamics, vegetation growth, fire, and wild and domestic animal offtake. The model is spatial,

    with areas of the world divided into square cells.

    Agriculture and food security are key sectors for intervention under climate change. Agricultural production is highly vulnerable even to 2C (lowend) predictions for global mean temperatures in 2100, with major implications for rural poverty and for both rural and urban food security. Agriculture also presents untapped opportunities for mitigation, given the large land area under crops and rangeland, and the additional mitigation potential of aquaculture.

    The way we produce food must adapt to a variable and changing climate. And key to achieving this is to improve the link between climate information and agricultural practices, especially those of smallholder farmers in developing countries. ‘Agro-climate tools’ do just that and some are introduced here.
