Reaching the world’s policy makers through IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report
CCAFS researchers made important contributions to the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)’s Fifth
Assessment Report (AR5), which was published in 2014. In
this way, CCAFS helped decision makers worldwide to
prioritize and design agricultural sector interventions aimed
at mitigating and adapting to climate change. Citations of
papers by CGIAR and CCAFS scientists in the Fifth
Assessment reports were far higher than in previous reports.
CCAFS researcher Professor Andy Challinor, based at the
University of Leeds in the UK, was a lead author of the chapter
on ‘Food security and food production systems’ in the report
on Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability.
