Our own Venu Aggarwal, Ellie Turner, and Aayushi Kachalia had the best time at the #AFSforum2024 in Kigali last week! We hosted a Coffee Farmer Thriving Index panel alongside Finola Mohan and ELIZABETH KIARIE. Despite a few last-minute venue changes, the conversation was lively and packed with valuable insights, focusing on the need to amplify coffee farmers' voices in supply chain discussions. Check out the full 2024 Coffee Farmer Thriving Index report here: https://lnkd.in/esH69hKx Huge thanks to everyone who made this a success and contributed to the discussions! Until next time, let’s keep pushing for food systems that thrive at every level—starting with the farmers.

They report improved health outcomes and higher confidence in the care they receive. 🧑🌾 Satisfaction: Elucid has an NPS of 68, which is excellent. The main drivers of satisfaction are no costs at point of service and all-inclusive coverage of various services. Check out the full report here: https://lnkd.in/eyvYQNVb

How are you measuring your impact on climate resilience? At 60dB, we’ve developed a lean approach which focuses on assessing: 1) Perceived resilience: We use four key indicators to assess how an individual’s resilience to potential future shocks has changed as a result of working with an organization. These indicators draw on Jones & Tanner’s work on subjective resilience. 2) Realized resilience: For those households who have experienced a shock recently, we capture five more indicators to measure how they fared in the face of a shock, and what was the impact of a given organization on their experience. 3) Resources and enablers: We measure changes in a household’s access to key resources and enablers that are proven to be drivers of household resilience, providing objective measures of what factors have changed and actionable insights on how to better support households. These indicators align with COSA’s resilience framework.
