Option 4 : 1, 2 and 3

The correct answer is 1, 2 and 3.

  • The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) envisions the Climate-Smart Village project to not only be long-term, but also participatory and relevant to the local context. Women farmers are encouraged to weigh in on all the discussions and take the lead in prioritizing what activities should be implemented in their villages. This is to make sure the climate-smart farming practices stick on long after the project has been phased out. Hence, statement 1 is correct.
  • CGIAR to play a major role in bringing to scale practices, technologies and institutions that enable agriculture to meet triple goals of food security, adaptation and mitigation. 
  • CGIAR Climate Change Contact Points at each CGIAR Research Center, will help ensure CCAFS is appropriately linked to all Centers and CRPs. Hence, statement 2 is correct.
  • ICRISAT is one of the very few CGIAR Centers to have a structured and executed outreach and scaling program. The breadth of ICRISAT’s partnerships shows that currently about half of our partnership funding went to CGIAR Centers, and the other half to non-governmental organizations, the private sector, universities and national partners. Hence, statement 3 is correct.
