Decentralization of ICARDA's Research and Capacity Development

Abstract

This summary presents the key elements of ICARDA's strategy of decentralization of its research and capacity development and the associated investment plan. The strategy builds on and strengthens our existing organisation, and provides for growth in the Center. It further strengtheners our partnerships with a view to creating a network of alliances dedicated to producing international public good research, enabling ICARDA to emerge from the current situation as far stronger and more effective Center, with the capacity to respond to regional and global challenges in the dry areas.
