Abstract
In many sub-Saharan African countries, poverty is linked to low agricultural productivity, which climate change threatens to aggravate. This action-research project aims to bring together institutions and individuals from the research, policymaking and farming communities to develop agricultural innovation systems that are better able to adapt to climate change and variability. They will do so with reference to case studies of farmers in two different agro-climatic sites - one disadvantaged and the other high-potential - in each of Malawi and Tanzania.
