Really a pleasure to launch our DiGES project today. DiGES supports fruit and vegetables production and consumption via climate adaptation. Support from @SciforAfrica. Led by @AlcadeCS, @wtocarr and Aziz from @nana_gambia. Thanks to all our stakeholders.
9 May 2024
In collaboration with @nana_gambia & @BiovIntCIAT_eng, we launched the Diversifying Gambian Diets for Health & Environmental Sustainability (DiGES) project
The 24-month initiative supported by @SciforAfrica will boost production of underutilised crops resilient to #ClimateChange

I’ve handled the review of > 1000 papers at @nature. Over time, you notice aspects of presentation on which reviewers tend to comment. In the interests of minimizing hassles during review, I offer the following suggestions (a bit targeted to climate papers).

So instructive to hear from @CGIARAfrica & @BiovIntCIAT_eng's @AlcadeCS at #WCRPOSC23 today on the importance of capacity building through regional institutions like @AgrhymetInfos, which has now cascaded high-need training on #NextGen forecasting to 17 West African countries!👏
