CGIAR Integrated Systems Approach to Research on Sustainable Intensification R. Asiedu, I. Hoeschle-Zeledon, and E. Koper IITA Sustainable Intensification of Cereal-based Farming Systems in the Sudano-Sahelian Zone of West Africa: Project Design Workshop, Tamale, Ghana, 9-12 January 2012 Vision and system level outcomes Vision: • To reduce poverty and hunger, improve human health and nutrition, and enhance ecosystem resilience through high-quality international agricultural research, partnership and leadership Outcomes: • reducing rural poverty • improving food security • improving nutrition and health • sustainable management of natural resources CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs) • The ongoing change process will in the near future see the operations of the CGIAR implemented through a number Research Programs (CRPs). • These are aimed to better coordinate R4D efforts, enhance efficiencies, and encourage cooperation and collaboration with a focus on effective partnerships to achieve more development impacts.
