Report of the Sixth External Program and Management Review (EPMR) of the Centro Internacional de Agricoltura Tropical (CIAT)

Two key findings from the review were the need to overcome governance and management shortcomings and to clarify CIAT’s future strategic research agenda. The Panel recommended improvements in seven categories: organization and planning of research, research management, specific research topics, regional organization of research, intellectual property, center management, and governance. The Council agrees with the Panel that the Center needs to quickly emerge from the most recent turmoi l and instability by rethinking its research strategy and by revitalizing its leadership. The SC concurs that this is a crucial time for CGIAR donors to invest collectively in CIAT’s turnaround, subject to program, governance and management changes detailed in the EPMR report.
