Date and time: October 10, 9-10 AM
Stemming from the core belief in the crucial role rigorous evidence can play to advise climate risk related policies and programs, IFPRI is hosting a panel discussion during MENA Climate Week that brings together researchers, implementing partners, and government officials to forge partnerships, share experiences and lesson learned. The panel will bridge evidence with policymaking to better inform decisions and policies related to sustainable rural livelihoods and climate risks in the region.
