CIAT develops crops, agricultural practices, interventions, and policies to maximize health and nutrition benefits.
We move smallholder agriculture from subsistence to profit, and ensure all children, women and men have access to affordable and healthy food through sustainable food systems.
CIAT helps communities, regions, and countries strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to the impacts of climate change and extreme events.
Future Seeds is an initiative to build a 21st century genetic-resources center that preserves and deploys crop diversity for tropical food systems increasingly challenged by climate change.
