On this #InternationalWaterDay, under the inspiring theme of "Water for Peace", we are spotlighting the crucial role of proficient water management at College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences - CAES I UM6P, including the work of IWRI- International Water Research Institute. Our focus is on the pivotal role that effective water management plays in adapting to climate change and building agricultural resilience. It's an approach that aims not only to meet our immediate needs, but also to secure a sustainable future for agriculture in a context of unpredictable climates. Abdessamad Hadri, senior scientist at the IWRI shares his perspectives on water-related issues, highlighting the importance of our initiatives. At CAES and IWRI, we are convinced that resilient agriculture starts with resilient water management. By harnessing innovative techniques and technologies, we aim to optimize water use in agriculture, making it more adaptable to the challenges posed by climate change. It's not just a question of survival; it's a question of prosperity. We are committed to ensuring that our agricultural practices are sustainable and productive, capable of feeding the world while preserving the planet. As we celebrate International Water Day, let's reflect on the importance of our collective efforts towards sustainable water management. It's a cornerstone not only for achieving climate-resilient agriculture, but also for guaranteeing food security for generations to come. #UM6P #CAES #IWRI #WaterForAll #ActionForSustainability #WaterForPeace #WorldWaterDay

🌱 🤝 Modernizing plant breeding necessitates collaboration across multiple disciplines and partners. How can we make sure that this happens? Addressing that question, Prof John Derera, from CGIAR's #AcceleratedBreedingInitiative at #APBAConf2023 in Marrakech, explained that harnessing the collective expertise and resources essential for plant breeding can be achieved through collaborative platforms and the establishment of shared services 📢 "In Africa, CGIAR and NARES collaborate on the improvement of 15 breeding stations. We have assessed challenges, identified required resources, and evaluated where they are needed. However, to develop sustainable platforms and maintain shared services, we need continuous public-private collaboration and support. This is our next challenge!" John Derera was part of a panel discussing on "Leveraging Opportunities for the Training of Modern Plant Breeders in #Africa for Africa," alongside other panelists from West Africa Centre for Crop Improvement, UM6P - Mohammed VI Polytechnic University, University of Cambridge, Plant Breeding Academy, University of Illinois, USA, and National Agricultural Research Organisation - NARO Uganda at the African Plant Breeders Association – APBA 2023 Conference
