This is the opening session of the CIFOR-ICRAF's 2022 Science Week (6-10 June 2022), a hybrid internal conference bringing together 500+ scientists across the world. The event is jointly run from hubs in Nairobi, Kenya and Bogor, Indonesia supplemented by internet connectivity across the 30 or so countries where CIFOR-ICRAF has offices and worldwide to our scientific staff connecting via Zoom.
The CIFOR-ICRAF strategy to 2030 is framed around five interlinked challenges of deforestation and biodiversity loss; broken food systems (including degradation of land and water resources); climate change; inequality and unsustainable value chains.
