DESCRIPTION:This ZEF public lecture will present the International Rice Re
 search Institute’s 2025–2030 Strategy\, which sets a clear direction f
 or transforming rice-based agri-food systems toward a more sustainable\, r
 esilient\, and inclusive future. The strategy repositions IRRI – an inte
 rnational research for development organization credited for spurring the 
 Green Revolution in rice-based systems in the 1960s in Asia - as a demand-
 driven and impact-oriented organization that integrates science\, partners
 hips\, and delivery to address country-specific needs across Asia and Afri
 ca.\n\nThe lecture will highlight how IRRI is evolving its research and pa
 rtnership model to become more integrated\, agile\, and collaborative in r
 esponse to a rapidly changing global landscape. It will also explore the r
 ole of strategic partnerships\, data and digital innovation\, and South–
 South collaboration in scaling solutions and accelerating food systems tra
 nsformation.
