Information on the Development of the CGIAR Fund
This webpage has been created to share information about the CGIAR Fund development activities. Key updates, documents and reports, when available, will be posted on this page.
A new, separate CGIAR Fund website is being created and will be live in January 2010.
Development of the CGIAR Fund
Development of the CGIAR Fund has been underway since approval of reforms at AGM08. The Framework Document for the CGIAR Fund describes the main features of the new CGIAR Fund and the roles, responsibilities, relationships and accountabilities of its components. The document has gone through several iterations (see below) and benefited from views of donors expressed at the London Donor Workshop, outcome of discussion at ExCo 16 , advice provided by the Advisory Group for the Fund, and two e-consultations.
The document will be discussed at ExCo 17 November 3 and 4, 2009 and at the 2009 Business Meeting on December 7, 2009.
