Publication - CGIAR Operations under the Plant Treaty Framework(Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), 2019) Lopez Noriega, I.; Halewood, M.; Abberton, M.; Amri, A.; Angarawai, I.I.; Anglin, N.L.; Blummel, M.; Bouman, B.; Campos, H.; Costich, D.E.; Ellis, D.; Gaur, P.; Guarino, L.; Hanson, J.; Kommerell, V.; Kumar, P.L.; Lusty, C.; Ndjiondjop, M.N.; Payne, T.S.; Peters, M.; Popova, E.; Prakash, G.; Sackville Hamilton, N.R.; Tabo, R.; Upadhyaya, H.D.; Yazbek, M.; Wenzl, P.The history of CGIAR and the development and implementation of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture ("Plant Treaty") are closely intertwined. In accordance with the agreements that 11 CGIAR centers signed with the Plant Treaty's Governing Body under Article 15 of the treaty, >730,000 accessions of crop, tree, and forage germplasm conserved in CGIAR genebanks are made available under the terms and conditions of the multilateral system of access and benefit sharing, and the CGIAR centers have transferred almost 4 million samples of plant genetic resources under the system. Many activities of CGIAR centers and their genebanks (e.g., crop enhancement, improved agronomic methods, seed system strengthening, and capacity building) are influenced by, and promote, the Plant Treaty's objectives. The continued existence and optimal functioning of the Plant Treaty's multilateral system of access and benefit sharing is critically important to CGIAR in the pursuit of its mission. However, the multilateral system has encountered some challenges since the Plant Treaty came into force. The successful conclusion of the ongoing process for enhancing the functioning of the multilateral system could increase monetary benefit sharing and incentives for exchanging more germplasm. In the meantime, increased efforts are necessary to promote nonmonetary benefit sharing through partnerships, technology transfer, information exchange, and capacity building. These efforts should be integrated into countries' and organizations' work to implement the Plant Treaty's provisions on conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources, and farmers' rights.
Publication - Fortifying the foundations for gender in AR4D(CIMMYT, 2018) Badstue, L.B.; Elias, M.; Kommerell, V.; Petesch, P.; Prain, G.; Pyburn, R.; Umantseva, A.
Publication - Wheat matters(CIMMYT, 2014) Kommerell, V.; Listman, G.M.; International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Ares (ICARDA); Centro Internacional de Mejoramiento de Maíz y Trigo (CIMMYT)Wheat is second only to rice as a source of calories for people in developing countries, and it is the primary source of protein. Wheat is an especially critical 'staff of life' for the 2.5 billion wheat-consuming poor - mean, women and children who live on less than US $2 per day - and provides vital income for approximately 30 million poor wheat producers and their families.
Publication - Partner survey for the CGIAR Research Program WHEAT: national and international priorities and engagement(CGIAR, 2014) Audley, M.; Kommerell, V.; Jakobi, N.; Velasco, C.; Crossa, J.This document analyzes 92 responses to a 2012 survey sent by the CGIAR Research Program WHEAT to its more than 200 partners regarding their institutional priorities, engagement and activities under WHEAT strategic initiatives, as well as priorities for research and investment and desired outcomes from the program. Partners across most regions and institution-types prioritized better wheat varieties and resistance/tolerance to diseases and pests for investment, as well as continued research to combat wheat rust disease. Respondents also showed a collective interest in WHEAT?s facilitating access to training, information, decision-making tools and breeding materials. Regarding how to measure success, respondents prioritized meeting rising food demands and greater engagement with all stakeholders.
