Work
programme 1: Promote inter-institutional
partnerships (break isolation barriers) for increased effectiveness of
IPM research and outreach
 |
The SP-IPM harnesses complementary differences between international and national institutes, organizations and programs to impact on the CGIAR output areas in research and related activities. The output areas are germplasm information and collections, sustainable production, policy, and enhancing national agricultural and extension systems (NARES). Through inclusive partnerships, the SP-IPM creates an enabling environment that helps various organizations to collaborate more closely and so, by increasing the quality and usefulness of IPM research, to be more effective in reducing both the direct production losses and the indirect costs to health and the environment.

- Develop/strengthen partnership strategies for timely identification of and responses to ecological imbalances causing pest threats to food security and poverty alleviation strategies
- Encourage stakeholder groups to develop and comply with common position statements on topical IPM issues requiring inter-institutional collaboration to resolve
- Establish and apply guiding principles on IPM research and implementation strategies
