What are “wicked problems”, why are they wicked and what does it take to do something about them? These are central issues in our new book, “Water Scarcity, Livelihoods and Food Security: Research and Innovation for Development”, which is based on experiences of the CGIAR Challenge Program on Water and Food.

We hear a lot about water scarcity. We hear that we are running out of fresh water, that food security is threatened, and that the grim consequences are already upon us.
