About AIM for Climate
The Agriculture Innovation Mission for Climate (AIM for Climate) is a joint initiative by the United States and the United Arab Emirates. AIM for Climate unites global participants to significantly increase investment in and support for climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation over five years (2021 – 2025), addressing both climate change and global hunger.
Raising global ambition and driving rapid and transformative climate action worldwide – including by enabling science-based and data-driven decision and policy-making – will be key. In this way, AIM for Climate partners are creating a surge of solutions, enabling a quantum leap in climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation. Together, we are empowering agriculture and food systems to be part of the solution to address the climate crisis, delivering climate action and co-benefits for a sustainable future.
In just three years, AIM for Climate and its growing network of more than 800 partners, including 56 countries, have mobilized $29.2 billion in increased investment in climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation over a 2020 baseline.
Despite tremendous progress, our work is not done. AIM for Climate is a five-year initiative and now, in its fourth year, it is critical for partners to work together toward institutionalizing progress. AIM for Climate partners are encouraged to harness the momentum of these successes by unlocking innovation — the key to long-lasting change. Our goal is not just to sustain progress but also to accelerate it toward a food-secure future, where climate change no longer poses an existential threat. Together, we can move farther, faster.
