This project, operating in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, focuses on building resilience in city region food systems (CRFS) against climate and pandemic shocks. It promotes rural-urban linkages and supports local governments with scenario planning, inclusive food policies, and smallholder strengthening. Urbanization, climate change, and COVID-19 are highlighted as key stressors. Interventions include multisectoral assessments and localized action planning for resilience and sustainability.
