Description 

This grant represents Canada’s institutional support to the CGIAR which uses these funds, along with other donor funding, to achieve its mandate. CGIAR’s mandate is focused on reducing poverty, enhancing food and nutrition security, and improving natural resources and ecosystem management in developing countries. The CGIAR is a global partnership that brings together 15 research centers to carry out large-scale multi-disciplinary agricultural research programs, in close partnership with national research systems and civil society organizations, including those in developing countries. Canada’s support also includes an investment in the CGIAR Collaborative Platform for Gender Research.
