The new research instrument of the CGIAR
A more strategic approach of the CGIAR system to achieve impact on CGIAR System-Level Outcomes:
• Reduce rural poverty
• Improve food security
• Improve nutrition and health
• Achieve more sustainable management of natural resources
Increased level of collaboration and partnerships
Streamlined, effective system-level governance
Strengthened, coordinated funding mechanisms
CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs)
A coherent portfolio of 15 CRPs
• Commodities (Rice, Maize, Wheat, Dryland cereals, Livestock and fish, Grain legumes, Roots-tubers-bananas)
• Agroecological zones (Drylands, Humid Tropics, Aquatic Systems)
• Policy, Institutions and Markets
• Nutrition and Health
• Water and Land
• Forests and trees
• Climate change

Agricultural Growth’s Impact on Poverty Reduction GDP growth from agriculture benefits the poorest half +2 times more than GDP growth from non-agriculture
Identify and promote implementation
of policies, institutions, and markets
to improve food security and incomes
of the rural poor on a sustainable basis
Strategic Goal of the Program
Improve policies to deliver sustainable technologies to small-scale producers
Enhance the effectiveness of public and private investment
Improve macroeconomic, trade, and agricultural sector policies
Develop social protection to build and protect assets for the poor
Strengthen property rights and collective action institutions for sustainable natural resource management and poverty reduction
Improve governance of rural services, especially related to land administration, management of rural infrastructure and agricultural innovation
Increase competitiveness of markets to benefit producers and consumers
Offer greater income opportunities by integrating small-scale producers into upgraded value chains
Objectives of the Program
Linkages between policies,
institutions and markets
research
Strong capacity building
Integrated approach to
gender
Innovative research
areas and methods
Management for impact
Inclusive partnerships and strong
collaboration
Effective data strategy
Program Highlights
Theme 1 identifies needed technology policies, investments, and safety nets.
Theme 1 identifies macroeconomic conditions, investments, and technology policies to improve inclusive markets for smallholders.
Theme 2 shows how producer groups and control over assets can help small-scale producers participate in value chains.
Theme 3 identifies market opportunities, product quality needs, and certification, food safety, and traceability standards that affect the institutional environment.
Theme 3 identifies sector strategies, regulation and investment needs, and market failures to be overcome.
Three Interlinked Themes Theme 2 clarifies feasibility of policy reforms; shows how property rights, collective action, and asset patterns affect technology adoption.
