Alliance of Bioversity International and the International Center for Tropical Agriculture; CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security; Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (2020) Adapting Green Innovation Centres to climate change: analysis of value chain adaptation potential. Maize and rice value chains in the Ashanti, Brong Ahafo, Eastern and Volta regions, Ghana. 40 p.

The present report aims to provide a climate and vulnerability analysis of the Green Innovation Centres (GIC) target commodity value chains. Herein we identify climate change- related vulnerabilities, hazards, and opportunities for adaptation to the same. Ultimately, our goal is to foster awareness of risks and adaptation priorities in the selected value chains and inform climate investments and planning through the recommendations on priority innovations to manage climate risks.
