Program Theory of change and Impact Pathway - Last Update 2015
A theory of change (ToC) describes how a research-in-development project or program induces expected outcomes and impacts by describing the causal interrelationships from the project/program’s activities to outputs, outcomes ...
Scaling Up Sustainable Land Management and Restoration of Degraded Land
With current rates of land degradation reaching
ten to twelve million ha per year, there is an
urgent need to scale up and out successful,
profitable and resource-efficient sustainable
land management practices to maintain ...
Drylands and Mission Critical Research Areas for the CGIAR. A report to the CGIAR Fund Council from the Dryland Systems Task Force.
Drylands occupy 41% of global land surface and are inhabited by more than 2.5 billion people,
living mainly in developing countries with about 16% living in chronic poverty. Shockingly 42% of
children less than 5 years of ...
Modalities for Scaling up Sustainable Land Management and Restoration of Degraded Land
To tackle inter-connected global challenges of population growth and migration, climate change, biodiversity loss, and degrading land and water resources, changes in land use and management are needed at a global scale. ...

Responses to Task Force on Mission Critical Research Areas for Drylands
Putting Economic and Environmental Sustainability Hand in Hand to Protect Our Lands
Land degradation is an underestimated global concern with far-reaching
implications affecting the ability of land to provide food and incomes. Globally, a
large portion of the vulnerable human populations—the rural poor—live ...
Socio-ecological Informatics Platform for Global Agri-food Systems Sustainability: Connecting Big Data, Systems Thinking, International Community of Practice to Big System Image
An Express of Interest (EoI) aims at developing and using an agri-food system informatics (hereafter referred as agro-informatics) platform that promotes geo-informatics, interdisciplinary interoperability of multidimensional ...
A Web-based Platform for Enhancing Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) in Research for Development - Toward Achieving Development Outcomes
Achieving efficiency in large and complex research for development programs (R4D) is a significant
challenge. In 2015, as a response to the lack of a shared monitoring and evaluation system for CGIAR
Research Programs ...
Global Geo-informatics Options by Context (GeOC) Tool for Supporting Better Targeting and Scaling-out of Sustainable Land Management: Designing the System and Use Cases
Sustainable Land Management (SLM) are required to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN). SLM options are fitted to the social, economic and ecological contexts. The high contextual diversity of drylands in particular ...
New dryland development paradigm grounded in empirical analysis of dryland systems science
Global drylands face a host of urgent human and environmental challenges with far‐reaching impacts. Improving smallholder agriculture remains a key development pathway to tackle these challenges. The dryland development ...
