| dc.description | The new vision and strategy for CIMMYT to increase its contribution to reducing poverty and hunger by 2020 was articulated in the center’s strategic plan: “Seeds of Innovation” (2004), which asked that CIMMYT undertake research “more sharply [focused] on reducing people’s vulnerability to poverty by looking at the entire context in which poor households operate and not exclusively at maize or wheat”. As outlined in CIMMYT’s Business Plan (2006-2010), the center’s MTP Project portfolio addresses the needs of poor producers and consumers through eco-regional and cropping systems approaches, but within the framework of a global maize and wheat research-for-development agenda. The MTP Project portfolio reflects internal structure and delivery mechanisms within a product-oriented framework that sets out nine complementary flagship products (see below). Each Project includes a flagship product, through which CIMMYT science and innovation deliver impact across one or more eco-regions. The MTP Projects em ody interdisciplinary research and the decentralization of undertakings across the locations where CIMMYT and its partners work to develop and deliver products. Each Project is an operational unit with clearly-defined goals, membership responsibilities, and leadership. The main undertakings are guided by eco-regional priority setting and impact targeting analysis, with a focus on research activities that deliver effective and sustainable impacts to beneficiaries. Many CIMMYT core products involve valueadded germplasm addressing major production and use needs. The center also generates tools and methodologies to help national programs make best use of strategic germplasm in adaptive breeding research and provides training in key aspects of crop improvement. Other disciplinary activities support cropping system resource management and socio-economic analysis and advocacy. | |
