The Climate Security Sensitiveness Tool (CSST) - East Africa template
The CSST is a programming assessment tool for conflict-sensitive and peace-responsive climate action, which can be used at the designing phase of a program.
‘Living’ database of food related policies in Honduras
ShiFT research involves identifying and gathering all policy documents that have a potential effect on the different components of Honduras food environment. Policies were identified in priority at the national level, but any specific sub-national policies that are relevant for our SHiFT target sites will be also included.
Embedding circularity into the transition towards sustainable agroforestry systems in Peru
Peru is promoting the adoption of agroforestry systems with the aim to halt the deforestation of tropical forests caused by smallholder farmers. However, deficient soil conservation practices and nutrient management are common among the targeted smallholders, hampering the success of this strategy. In this study, we explore the potential of valorizing municipal biowaste as compost to be used as soil amendment in coffee agroforestry systems and in silvopastoral systems. The analysis was concentrated in four Peruvian regions and the most populous city in each of them.
The indirect impact of crop insurance on household food security in the Guinea savannah region of West Africa
Under high climatic, disease and market uncertainty, smallholder farmers make heuristic decisions on whether to manage risk and invest in profitable alternatives or, as a risk-averse mechanism, continue with the traditional low-risk low-return practices. The goal of this paper is to investigate the role of information, social capital, and resource endowments on farmers' decision to invest in insurance bundled with fertilizer and modern improved seeds and its impacts on food security indicators including surplus produce, marketing share, and produce storage.

Sixty years of irrigated wheat yield increase in the Yaqui Valley of Mexico: Past drivers, prospects and sustainability
Continued global wheat yield increase (about 1.3% p.a. for 2000–2019) remains an essential condition for greater world food security. Relevant to this challenge is the rise in average farm yield (FY) of irrigated spring wheat in the Yaqui Valley of northwest Mexico from 2 to 7 t/ha between 1960 and 2019.
Guidelines to the agroecology-I context document
The purpose of the Context Document is threefold: first, to characterize the environmental, social and economic context of each Agroecological Living Lab (ALL); second, to understand the data and information currently available in each ALL; and third to characterize how and the extent to which agroecological principles are already being employed in each ALL. The Context Document is not meant to be a quantitative baseline or an exhaustive report, but rather a broad overview of the situation in each ALL.
