TL;DR: This paper explored the relationship between farming practice changes made by households coping with the huge demographic, economic, and ecological changes they have seen in the last 10 years and household food security and found that households that have been introducing new practices, such as improved management of crops, soil, land, water, and livestock, are more likely to be food secure than less innovative farming households.

TL;DR: In this paper, conditions that underlie vulnerability and resilience possibilities for households and communities that face and respond to climate- and other changes, in nine East and West African countries, are examined.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the development and use of scenarios as an approach to guide action in multi-level, multi-actor adaptation contexts such as food security under climate change, and applied lessons about appropriate scope, enabling adaptation pathways, and developing strategic planning capacity to scenarios processes in multiple global regions.

TL;DR: In this paper, an approach based on the theory of change is proposed for agricultural research for development, which combines indicators of progress in research along with indicators of change aimed at understanding the factors that enable or inhibit the behavioural changes that can bring about development impacts.

TL;DR: In this article, eleven case studies are used to exemplify scaling-up strategies based on value chains and private sector involvement, information and communication technologies and agro-advisory services, and policy engagement.
