Congratulations to @ucdavis for the new @ResilientAgDev. A risk of shocks like extreme drought keep small-scale farmers from what’s possible and pushes them sometimes to survival migration, like our paper with @a_velasquezg finds for El Salvador resilience.ucdavis.edu.
Announcing the Resilience Innovation Facility at @ucdavis, which designs and scales ways to manage the risk of drought and other shocks, unlocking the potential of small-scale agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

Thank you to everyone who has created such an incredible welcome for this new enterprise. We are so excited to join a vibrant #globaldev community of researchers, practitioners, and so many others who make this work possible.
We are excited to learn more about the Resilience Innovation Facility and how we can work together to strengthen CDRFI and resilience in the face of climate change. Congrats to our friends at @ucdavis.
Risks from extreme weather hold small-scale farmers back from what’s possible. @grp_resilience is excited to announce @ucdavis's Resilience Innovation Facility (@ResilientAgDev) that will leverage investments to unlock the potential of small-scale farming: bit.ly/3yqrOn7
