CGIAR Members

Membership of the CGIAR is open to international organizations, governments, and private foundations that support the mission of the CGIAR, participate in policy making, and provide support for the conduct of research at the fifteen international Centers.

The CGIAR partnership includes 25 developing and 22 industrialized countries, 4 private foundations, and 13 regional and international organizations that provide financing, technical support, and strategic direction. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and the World Bank serve as cosponsors.

CGIAR members contributed US $426 million in 2006. Individual members make voluntary contributions to the Centers and programs of their choice, allowing funds to be targeted to areas of research and regions that align with development priorities. Independent studies consistently demonstrate that CGIAR research earns handsome returns.
