Agriculture Innovation Mission for Climate (AIM for Climate)

Start Date: 02/11/2021
End Date: 2025

Description

Global initiative jointly launched by the United States and the United Arab Emirates to increase investment in and support for climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation. AIM for Climate seeks to accelerate basic and applied scientific research, the development and deployment of technologies, products, services and knowledge for producers and other food-system actors, and international cooperation and exchange among governments, scientists, businesses, organizations and research institutions.

Observations

AIM for Climate was officially launched on 2 November 2021 during COP26 as a joint initiative of the United States and the United Arab Emirates. Its stated period was 2021-2025. The initiative brought together an international coalition of governments and non-government partners seeking to increase investment in climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation. By November 2024 the network reported more than 800 partners, including 56 countries, and USD 29.2 billion in increased investment over a 2020 baseline. This amount represents aggregate investment commitments or investment mobilized by partners and Innovation Sprints and is NOT a budget directly administered by AIM for Climate. AIM for Climate expressly states that it does not provide funding for Innovation Sprints. Therefore budget_usd, counterpart_budget_usd and total_budget remain NULL.
