Our global food systems have suffered a number of recent shocks including drought, conflict and the COVID-19 pandemic, pushing already struggling rural households into crisis.

Risk management frameworks help #smallholder farmers recover quickly from shocks and protect their crops for the future 🧑‍🌾

Learn how this can build resilient livelihoods from Prof. Michael R. Carter founding director of @ResilientAgDev at @ucdavis 👇

A rural family’s circumstances change over time. RIF director Michael Carter writes in @farmingfirst how bundled tools to manage a risk of shocks like drought can help people move up the ladder of both protection and possibility.

Financial tools to manage risk, like #indexinsurance, can transform people's #farming livelihoods. It's possible now to bundle these tools to meet people's changing needs over time, helping them to move up the ladder of both protection and possibility.

Rural communities thrive when they are resilient to climate events like drought or flooding.

@tmawelsh features @ResilientAgDev in #DevexDish as it drives inclusive ag transformation through innovation for farmers in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. https://t.co/LIQoP8I0i0

[Resilience+ Innovation Facility @ResilientAgDev]

@WilliamGMoseley These are real challenges. We are designing and scaling approaches to generating resilience that free farmers up to adopt Green Revolution technologies where risk has kept them out of reach. Evidence summary is here: https://t.co/eb6wmmYs0D. We’re happy to discuss this more.

We are proud to join #ClimateShot allies seeking to close the innovation gap in #agriculture with new technologies and methods of producing food which protect nature.

Risks from extreme weather hold small-scale farmers back from what’s possible.

The new Resilience+ Innovation Facility (@ResilientAgDev) at @ucdavis will leverage all our investments to unlock that potential!

[Ana María Ibáñez @anamibanez]

Congratulations to @ucdavis for the new @ResilientAgDev. A risk of shocks like extreme drought keep small-scale farmers from what’s possible and pushes them sometimes to survival migration, like our paper with @a_velasquezg finds for El Salvador https://t.co/3YjyfaN7H6.

[Resilience+ Innovation Facility @ResilientAgDev]

Thank you to everyone who has created such an incredible welcome for this new enterprise. We are so excited to join a vibrant #globaldev community of researchers, practitioners, and so many others who make this work possible.

[Resilience+ Innovation Facility @ResilientAgDev]

@IFPRI @ucdavis Thanks for sharing the news! @IFPRI plays an outsized role in leading research that benefits small-scale farmers around the world. We are excited to advance this work.
