Latest Innovations by IITA in Maize and Groundnut Value chain International Institute of Tropical Agriculture
Aflatoxins are highly toxic metabolites produced by the Aspergillus flavus fungus that infects crops like maize and groundnuts. They pose serious health and trade issues in Africa. IITA developed Aflasafe, a biocontrol product containing non-toxic atoxigenic A. flavus strains, to reduce aflatoxin contamination in crops. A pilot plant in Nigeria produces Aflasafe for distribution in multiple African countries. Studies show Aflasafe can reduce aflatoxin levels by 60-96% in crops and its effects last multiple seasons. Upscaling Aflasafe production and adoption by farmers has potential to significantly improve health, trade, and food security in Africa.Partnerships and youth entrepreneurs to scale agroecology

Aflatoxins frequently contaminate staple crops in Africa, negatively impacting health, trade and livelihoods. Biological control using atoxigenic strains has proven effective at reducing contamination when combined with other management practices. Projects are piloting the commercialization of aflatoxin biocontrol products and developing regional strains. While technologies exist, implementation is needed across Africa to reduce the heavy aflatoxin burden on economies, food systems, and consumer health, requiring support from multiple stakeholders.Agriculture and food security dimentions of aflatoxin
Agriculture and food security dimentions of aflatoxinInternational Institute of Tropical Agriculture
This document discusses aflatoxins, which are toxic metabolites produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus that commonly infect crops like maize and groundnuts. Aflatoxins pose serious health risks to consumers and reduce trade. The document summarizes research showing that applying atoxigenic strains of A. flavus through products like Aflasafe can competitively exclude toxigenic strains, reducing aflatoxin levels in crops by over 80% both before and after storage. Aflasafe works through soil application and has shown promise in on-farm trials across Africa led by IITA and partners to improve food security and health while enabling trade.Pre and Post-Harvest Management of Aflatoxin in Food Crops
Pre and Post-Harvest Management of Aflatoxin in Food CropsInternational Institute of Tropical Agriculture
This document summarizes strategies for pre- and post-harvest management of aflatoxin in food crops. It discusses how aflatoxin contamination occurs before and after crop maturity due to factors like insect damage, drought, and humidity. It then outlines management strategies including host plant resistance, insect control, biocontrol use of Aflasafe, and post-harvest practices like drying, storage, and sorting. Aflasafe application in multiple countries has shown reductions in aflatoxin of over 80% at harvest and in storage. The conclusion emphasizes applying an integrated approach of Aflasafe use along with best agricultural and storage practices.How can we work globally and locally?

Project summary iNASHR ICARDA - Laura.pdf
The Innovative Agriculture for Smallholder Resilience (iNASHR) project (Egypt) was implemented over 3 years during which there was the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to instability in farm prices and uncertainties in water availability.
Despite this, 18 teams of Entrepreneurs for Rural Access (ERAs) serving as digital extension service providers were able to reach more than 60,000 people in rural communities between 2021 and 2023.
Three specially commissioned “farmer-to-farmer” style training videos were produced (see at the bottom of this blog post),
and 60 other relevant Access Agriculture videos were translated into Arabic and shown to farmers.
These active service providers, half of whom are women, used a solar-powered smart projector to reach communities where access to power supply, internet connection and mobile phone signal can be challenging.

EO based information for food security policy and decision support
This document discusses how Earth observation (EO) can provide evidence to support food security policies and decision making. It notes the global rise in food insecurity and outlines JRC's use of EO for agricultural monitoring, early warning systems, and yield forecasting to help policymakers. Machine learning methods are being used to improve predictive capacity of food insecurity indicators. The document also emphasizes strengthening local capacity to use geospatial data for monitoring agriculture in Africa and providing technical support for new regulations.

‘How is the African insurance industry responding to climate change?’
6 June 2023. ‘How is the African insurance industry responding to climate change?’
https://paepard.blogspot.com/2023/06/how-is-african-insurance-industry.html
The insurance industry is exposed to the risks of climate change and that risk is increasing. Insurers should be aware of these risks and the potential impact on their business. A 2019 global survey [With Climate Impacts Growing, Insurance Companies Face Big Challenges] found that 72 percent of insurance companies believe climate change will affect their business, but 80 percent of them have not taken significant steps to lessen climate risks. Moreover, insurance companies invest the money from the premiums they collect in the financial markets. They have $582 billion invested in fossil fuels investments that could be devalued as climate risks increase.
As natural disasters become more frequent and more costly, insurance companies are facing big challenges. If insurers are to weather the storms ahead, they’ll need to make some changes. The insurance industry needs to make substantial changes to deal with its own climate risks. Some of these changes could also enable insurance companies to help speed the transition to a net-zero society.
Speakers
Diana Castro (picture) is part of UNEP. As the Programme
Supervisor of the Principles for Sustainable Insurance (PSI) initiative, Diana oversees the largest collaboration between the United Nations and the insurance industry, which has over 250
members worldwide committed to integrating Environmental, Social, and Governance risks into their decision-making.
Lesley Ndlovu (picture) is currently the Chief Executive Officer of African Risk Capacity “ARC” Ltd, based in Nairobi, Kenya.
Kelvin Massingham is Director of Risk and Resilience at FSD Africa, where he is responsible for driving financial market innovation in Africa to increase resilience and create pathways for green finance to flow towards a net-zero and nature-positive future.
How are African banks coping with Climate Change
16 May 2023. This webinar discussed how climate-related risks threaten the functioning of banking institutions as well as the stability of the financial system.
Climate change and climate policy affect the balance sheets and business models of banks in different ways. African banks are vulnerable to the increasing frequency and severity of climate change shocks. They are also increasingly aware of the importance of adopting green financing principles, seeking to address risks and more importantly, to grasp new opportunities.
However, only 17% of banks have so far introduced specific green financing products, and these are estimated to account for only 2-20% of their portfolio . The webinar discussed how climate-related risks threaten the functioning of banking institutions as well as the stability of the financial system. The discussions also shed light on initiatives of banks to implement sustainable practices and central banks to create an enabling environment for sustainable finance drawing on international best practices.

This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
