Summary Report on the InsuResilience Sectoral Community Workshop: Integrated Approaches to Resilience in Agriculture

The workshop started off the year 2022 for the InsuResilience Sectoral Communtiy on Integrated Approaches to Resilience in Agriculture. The community brings together practitioners, researchers, project developers, funding partners and other CDRFI stakeholders with a vision to effectively integrate risk transfer approaches (such as insurance) with other resilience-building measures in the agricultural space.

The event asked questions such as “what are integrated approaches in the agriculture space” and “how can we achieve a better integration between risk transfer and climate adaptation and comprehensive risk management?”.  The event also offered the opportunity to learn more about the open 7th call for funding proposals of the InsuResilience Solutions Fund with a special window on climate-smart agriculture projects, and to inform the way ‘integrated approaches’ are designed, assessed and evaluated in the further project development process.

The workshop featured speakers, among others, from GIZ, UC Davis/ Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Markets, Risk and Resilience, and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). In an interactive format, the workshop allowed interaction and networking among participants. The workshop was open to members of the Sectoral Community, InsuResilience, and other interested parties.
