What if knowledge was easier to find, connect, and use? At CIP, a Digital & Data workshop explored how to build tools that link data across systems helping teams answer key questions and accelerate science for real-world impact 🌎. 👉🏽 bit.ly/DigitalDataCIP 🔸 @CGIAR

CIP & AGIS are joining science and genomics to shape the future of potato 🥔. Through a new Joint Laboratory, this collaboration is advancing seed based systems for root & tuber crops, improving how innovations reach farmers & strengthening resilient food systems 🌍. 🔸 @CGIAR

How do you make science 🧪 work faster and smarter? CIP’s Digital & Data team in Lima explored how to connect data, systems, and people identifying key capabilities and designing tools to turn information into actionable insight 💡. 👉🏽 bit.ly/DigitalDataCIP 🔸 @CGIAR

From research to real-world impact 🌍. Dialogue between @CGIAR Centers and the Embassy of Ireland in Nairobi highlighted the role of partnerships in scaling innovation 💡 for farmers and food systems. 🔸 @Irish_Aid 🔸 @IITA_CGIAR 🔸 @WorldFishCenter 🔸 @BiovIntCIAT_eng

Resilient food systems start with strong partnerships 🤝. At the University of Antananarivo, CIP joined partners to explore how science, policy, and investment can accelerate agri-food systems transformation in Madagascar & across Africa 🌍. 🔸 @ICRISAT 🔸 @ILRI 🔸 @joyce_maru

In Huancavelica, where anemia rates remain high, science moves beyond the lab 🔬. CIP, together with @Grupo_Yanapai, Universidad Nacional de Huancavelica, and @INIAPeru, trained farmers on iron-biofortified potatoes 🥔 as part of the fight against anemia. 🔸 @Gorehvca

Giving builds stronger systems. At CIP’s Nairobi office, colleagues marked #WomensDay with a dialogue on mentorship, collaboration, inclusion and how these actions help build resilient agri-food systems 🌏. 🔸 @CGIAR 🔸 @joyce_maru

🎉 Partnership in action. CIP and FIFAMANOR signed an MoU in Madagascar to advance potato 🥔 development as a strategic driver of resilient agrifood systems and smallholder opportunity. 🔸 @WorldBankAfrica 🔸 @joyce_maru 🔸 @CGIAR 🔸 @ICRISAT 🔸 @ILRI 🔸 @AfricaRice

Long-term experiments shape long-term solutions. A CIP trial is now part of @CGIAR’s Long-Term Experiments, strengthening evidence for resilient soils and climate-smart farming 🌱. 👉🏽 bit.ly/PB-CGIARLongTe…

Turning investment into impact takes alignment. CIP joined a joint mission with @WorldBankAfrica and @CGIAR in Madagascar to help ensure agricultural investment delivers real gains for farmers and food systems 🌍.

Turning innovation into impact starts with alignment. CIP met with @RwandaAgri to advance plans for deploying late blight–resistant potatoes 🥔, sustainable seed systems 🌱, and inclusive opportunities for youth and women.

Stronger seed systems 🌱 start with stronger partnerships. CIP hosted Prof. Agnes Mwang’ombe from the University of Nairobi to explore collaboration in graduate 🎓 mentorship, shared facilities, and potato 🥔 tissue culture research. 🔸 @uonbi

This week, @Cipotato joins @CGIAR leadership and national researchers in a high-level regional mission in Madagascar to discuss advancing 🌱 agricultural investment, 🔬strengthening science & partnerships, and building resilient food systems for improved livelihoods.

Some of the most important answers in agriculture 🌱 only emerge over time. CIP’s long-term trial is now part of @CGIAR’s Long-Term Experiments, supporting resilient soils, climate-smart practices, and better decisions for sustainable food systems. 👉🏽 bit.ly/PB-CGIARLongTe…

Crop diversity 🌱 is not just conserved, it’s activated. New research highlights how shared genomic data 📊 and regional cooperation help genebanks support food security and climate resilience. 👉🏽 bit.ly/PB-Strengtheni… 🔸 @CIMMYT 🔸 @CGIARGenebanks

From data 📈 to decisions. CIP’s long-term trial joins @CGIAR’s Long-Term Experiments, strengthening the evidence base for resilient soils and climate-smart agriculture 🌱. 👉🏽 bit.ly/PB-CGIARLongTe…

Long-term science, lasting impact 🌎. A @Cipotato trial is now mapped into @CGIAR’s Long-Term Experiments, contributing critical evidence on soils, climate resilience, and sustainable farming systems 🌱. 👉🏽 bit.ly/PB-CGIARLongTe…

🔎 Ciencia y política pública para la protección del ambiente CIP recibió la visita de la viceministra Romina Caminada, del @MinamPeru, para identificar caminos comunes donde la ciencia puede fortalecer la protección ambiental en el Perú.

From research to real fields 🌱. Rukaria connects farmers, counties, and researchers to test, learn, and scale potato 🥔 solutions that respond to climate and water 💧 challenges. 👉🏽 bit.ly/RukariaInnovat… 🔸 @FIPS_Africa 🔸 @CGIAR

This Valentine’s Day, we celebrate what connects us ❤️ . Partnerships, purpose, and the shared commitment to stronger, more resilient food systems🌱.
