"The Research Program-West and Central Africa is structured around four (4) research themes: 1.) Crop\r\nImprovement; 2.) Integrated Crop Management; 3.) Systems Research; and 4.) Policy and Impact. The\r\npresentations addressed these four themes, highlighting key achievements and focusing on perspectives and\r\nareas of collaboration within and across the three regions (Asia, ESA and WCA) and also with key\r\nstakeholders within our mandate areas.\r\nPartnership is crucial in delivering on our goal and objectives. We therefore pursue our efforts of\r\nstrengthening partnership and collaboration. Resource mobilization has received due attention in the past\r\nfew years. We have constituted various consortia comprising CG centers and IARCs (IITA, ILRI, ICRAF,\r\nWorld Vegetable Center), NARS, private sector, regional organizations (e.g. CORAF) to respond to large\r\ncalls from USAID-Mali and Niger; the Government of the Netherlands (Dryland Sahel Program-DryDev-\r\n2); with support from SMC/HQ and using the services of a consultant. We are also working with Anthony\r\nWhitbread and other colleagues from CG centers and CCAFS to organize the 2-D initiative meeting for the\r\nSahel either in Bamako or another venue in WCA.\r\nWe are pleased to have recently launched the newly EU approved DeSIRA/APSAN EUR 4 million project\r\nin Mali which will complement the AVISA project. We will devote some time to discuss our technology\r\ndissemination approach using case studies of HOPE II, TL III, TAAT, Africa RISING’s ARDT-SMS,\r\nSINCERE and other CCAFS projects and how we learn from these experiences, and how this work can be\r\npublished. Dr. Sereme will provide us with an update on the on-going discussions on the One CGIAR reform\r\nas he has been attending various related meetings. Dr. Kiran Sharma will provide us with guidance on\r\naligning our work to the forthcoming changes within the CG. Dr. Carberry will lead and guide us through\r\nthe ICRISAT’s Strategic Planning in the context of One CGIAR reform.\r\nWe will also discuss the need and level of capital investment in strengthening the facilities and infrastructures\r\nin the Regional Crop Improvement Hub (RCIH) at Samanko."^^ .
