For 40 years, ICARDA has worked with drylands countries to improve the performance of their
national agricultural systems. This includes expertise in rebuilding agricultural systems after
conflict. Today, ICARDA runs research for development activities in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine,
Syria, and Yemen.
The center’s post conflict know-how directly supports Norway’s development priorities –
specifically in the areas of work in fragile states, peace building; combating climate change; and
ensuring lasting food and nutrition security.
