Though some of our activities have been modified due to the COVID-19 crisis, our work that can be undertaken remotely is still underway. The team on our project Adapting Agriculture to Climate Today, for Tomorrow (ACToday), which is led by Columbia's International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI), has been working with partners in Ethiopia to create new climate tools for decision makers working in agriculture and food security. These investments are now directly enabling the World Food Programme (WFP) to reach its 2022 target of providing a million smallholder farmers in Ethiopia with affordable insurance against droughts and other climate risks. Read about their work in this new story.
