CGIAR is a global partnership that unites international organizations engaged in research for a food-secured future. CGIAR research is dedicated to reducing rural poverty, increasing food security, improving human health and nutrition, and ensuring sustainable management of natural resources. It is carried out by 15 centres that are members of the CGIAR Consortium, in close collaboration with hundreds of partners, including national and regional research institutes, civil society organizations, academia, development organizations, and the private sector. The main goal of CGIAR is reducing rural poverty, improving food security, improving nutrition and health, sustainably managing natural resources.
Agrinatura has organized the assessment of global programmes, including a large number of expertise missions held in parallel such as the monitoring of CGIAR EU funded projects. The main results for the centres have been crop genetic improvement that includes the high-yielding wheat and rice varieties, improving the nutritional value of staple crops; pest and disease control through breeding resistant varieties among others.
