The CGIAR Systemwide and Ecoregional Programs were closed down at the end of 2009. As a direct consequence of this, the PRGA Program was repositioned as a core program of CIAT, with a view to having the Program serve the other research programs of the Center. This final report therefore covers the period from the beginning of 2010 to the closure of the Program in mid--2011.Item Global Public Goods Project Phase 2 - Final Report(Internal Document, 2010-10-26) CGIAR Systemwide Genetic Resources ProgrammeThis report summarizes the overall achievements of the GPG2 project that were made possible through the generous support from the World Bank.

The sheets include information on up to ten of the respective Center’s or system-wide program most promising best bets for boosting crop yields in sub-Saharan Africa. The information captured has helped the Alliance of CGIAR Centers to compile inputs across Centers efficiently into a database format that can be organized into different useful views (by country, region, center or time-frame).Item A Renewed Partnership for the CGIAR in the 21st Century: A Position Paper from the Alliance of the CGIAR Centers.(Internal Document, 2008-06-01) CGIAR Alliance OfficeThis paper presents the principles the Alliance considers as prerequisites for a successful redesigning of the system and it outlines the Alliance's preferred scenario and two alternatives.Item CGIAR Procurement of Goods, Works and Services Guidelines: Financial Guidelines Series no. 6(Internal Document, 2008-04-28) CGIAR SecretariatFinancial guideline no. 6 published by the CGIAR Secretariat in April 2008.

At it's 16th Session in September 2004, the Genetic Resources Policy Committee (GRPC) of the CGIAR recommended that the CGIAR’s System-wide Genetic Resources Programme (SGRP) and the Centres work together to determine the scope of microorganisms relevant to food and agriculture, as a first step in analyzing policy on access, use and conservation of culture collections within the CGIAR system and outside. The GRPC subsequently commissioned a background study on technical issues related to developing harmonized management policies, guidelines and practices concerning acquisition, use and distribution of Agricultural Microbial Genetic Resources (AMiGRs). This study was carried out by Prof. John Howieson of Murdoch University, Australia. The resulting paper was considered by the GRPC in subsequent meetings and circulated to FAO, the CGIAR and other interested organizations for comments. It was finally approved, with some changes, by the GRPC at it's 21th Session in April 2007, for submission as a draft information paper to the 11th Regular Session of Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (CGRFA), 11–15 June 2007. The GRPC added four recommendations that it developed based on inputs from the paper and other sources. The recommendations are included in the "conclusions" of the paper. These same recommendations were provided to the 11th CGRFA by way of an oral intervention.Item Revolutionizing the Evolution of the CGIAR, 2001-2007: A Contribution to the Institutional Memoir and Some Thoughts for the Future(Internal Document, 2007-05-01) Reifschneider, Francisco José B.; Corea, Ernest; Johnson, IanThis record is the first account of the CGIAR's reform program launched in 2001. The program focused on efficiency, efiicacy, transparency, accountability, and participation and included four initial pillars of reform: 1) creation of Challenge Programs, 2) creation of an Executive Council, 3) creation of a science-focused Science Council to advise the Consultative Group, and 4) the establishment of a System Office. These pillars paved the way to additional components such as a system-wide Performance Measurement System, a compensation study and more. The report spells out the assessment of impacts achieved and raises questions for future action.Item The Way Forward for the CGIAR System.(Internal Document, 2007-05-01) CGIAR Alliance OfficeThis 4-pager is a statement by the Alliance of CGIAR Centers for discussion in the CGIAR System and beyond.
