The Two Degree Initiative (2DI) is a global level initiative led by the alliance of CGIAR, World Resources Institute (WRI), and Global Commission on Adaptation (GCA) to foster a Climate Smart AgriFood Sector. 2DI aims to address the challenges of intensifying climate change and population growth in eight key climate-change hotspots across the world by strengthening their preparedness and adaptation capabilities, and capitalizing on opportunities the regions hold.
