ASARECA Policy Officer Ms Julian highlights key changes affecting Policy cycle in Africa during the CGIAR Science week 2025. #CGIARScienceWeek #OneCGIAR #WithScienceWeCan.

Here are the challenges:
📷 Getting the policy problem wrong at the time of design of the policy. Wrong diagnosis implies implementation of wrong policy priorities.
📷 Failure to monitor and evaluate the implementation of policies that have been approved
📷 Lack of budgetary allocations to policy units to do their work.
📷 Ambiguity of policies, leading to confusion in isolating action areas.
📷 Lack of supporting regulatory frameworks to ensure compliance and voluntarism.
📷 Ever changing national priorities rendering earlier policy recommendations redundant if not abandoned.
📷 Lack of political will including buy-in by political leadership and integrating policies into national development and investment plans.
📷 Lack of awareness of existing policies and recommendations.

Farmers, #agripreneurs, #women, and #youth actively engaged in knowledge-sharing, hands-on demonstrations, and collaboration on Best Management Practices (BMPs), agroforestry, and climate-smart solutions.

A huge thank you to the European Union, @EU_Commission, @CIHEAMBari, @aics_it, @ASARECA @kalromkulima, @WatDev1, and all partners for their support in empowering communities with the skills and resources needed for a more resilient agricultural sector!

“Climate change is real, it is here, and we need to act now!” Strong commitment by Dr. Florence Uwamahoro of #RAB.

[ASARECA @ASARECA]

Rwanda Agriculture and Animal Resources Development Board #RAB Deputy Director General for Agricultural Development Dr. Florence Uwamahoro has pledged total support to the joint initiative by @ASARECA, @CGIARAfrica and @RAB scientists to develop comprehensive #guidelines & #manuals for farmers, extension staff and other stakeholders to enhance productivity in the legumes value chain.
The guidelines are very critical in boosting the production of #legumes and #pulses as the existing guidelines do not integrate mechanisms of managing the impacts of climate change on the productivity of the legumes and pulses.
“The seasons have become more limiting than before with prolonged delays in the onset of rains. So you notice at all times that climate change is real, it is here and we need to act now. Not in the future,” Dr. Uwamahoro said.

This support from the #RAB will go a long way in supporting smart legume farming that will in turn attract the minorities and ensure gender inclusivity in Agriculture to realize food security and sustainability in the region.

📢 Exciting collaboration! The @CGIAR and @ASARECA has convened stakeholders to co-design a Climate-Smart Legume Production Guidelines & Manual for Rwanda 🌱🌍. #ClimateSmartAg #Legumes #Rwanda

[ASARECA @ASARECA]

@ASARECA and the @CGIAR are holding a consultative meeting for co-designing Climate-Smart Legume Production Guidelines and Manual for Rwanda. The meeting in Kigali city will last from 10 – 12 March 2025. It is informed by the realization that the existing guidelines and manuals for boosting productivity in #legumes and pulses do not integrate the approaches for dealing with impacts of climate change on productivity.

4.Nutritional Powerhouse: Rich in iron & zinc, legumes enhance food and nutrition security, addressing malnutrition challenges.
5.Cultural Acceptance: Legumes are widely consumed and integrated into traditional diets, making adoption easier....

Kenya has a unique opportunity to scale legume production and leverage these benefits for climate resilience, food security, and economic growth. Collaboration among farmers, researchers, policymakers, and investors is key to unlocking this potential!

Legume production is highly dependent on weather, making it vulnerable to climate variability and change.

As climate change intensifies, weather fluctuations are expected to increase, further exposing already susceptible regions to greater risks.

Irregular Rainfall Patterns in Kenya:

Changes in the onset and cessation of rainfall shorten the effective growing period. Legume seeds may fail to germinate on time or suffer during early growth if moisture is insufficient or arrives too late.
