Goals of the GFAR 2000
Objectives:
The purpose
of the GFAR 2000 meeting is to review the progress of GFAR every
three years, and to orient its future work program accordingly.
The overall objective of the Conference is to strengthen partnership
in Agricultural Research for Development (ARD). Three specific
objectives have been assigned to the Conference:
- Formulation and endorsement
of a Global Shared Vision and development
of a Global Strategic Agenda.
- Identification of
new innovative research partnerships on four priority areas (Genetic
Resources Management and Biotechnology; Natural Resources Management
and Agro-ecology; Global Networks along the principle of Commodity
Chains; Policy Management & Institutional Strengthening)
and consensus-building on the respective implementation strategies.
- Promotion of Information
and Knowledge exchanges between the GFAR Stakeholders.
Expected Outcomes:
Each of the specific
objectives mentioned above will lead to specific outputs:
- A Global
Shared VisionStatement and a "Dresden Declaration on
research partnerships" endorsed by the GFAR Stakeholders.
- A Framework for developing innovative
research partnerships and identification of new partnership opportunities.
- A Strategy for improving information
sharing and communication between the GFAR Stakeholders.

Goals of the CGIAR MTM

CGIAR members and
partners will meet to discuss the future of the CGIAR. At International
Centers Week 1999, the CGIAR requested TAC to lead an exercise
to develop a new vision and strategic plan for the CGIAR 2010.
A key point on the agenda will be TAC's recommendations for a
new strategy, and answers to the following questions:
- What should the CGIAR
be doing and producing?
- How should it be
doing it?
- With whom should
it be doing it?
