Knowledge as formal evidence created through research, but also knowledge about the research process itself, methods, tools, and soft skills that support the process. Much of that knowledge is tacit, residing within researchers’ heads, or informal, scattered among reports and products across the Alliance. Knowledge sharing is about how we leverage that knowledge, connecting and aggregating it, engaging scientists to generate new ideas through conversations, and supporting processes so that potential users can add to their own knowledge through engagement with our research and researchers. The Knowledge Sharing unit (KS) is a research support unit under the Office of the Associate Director General (ADG) for Research Strategy. Our mission is to support the Alliance researchers by building a dynamic culture of knowledge exchange, fostered by innovative and creative approaches that strengthen connections between silos, position our research effectively and encourage active engagement in creating a sustainable future. This brief highlights the Knowledge Sharing Unit’s refreshed focus and offerings for 2025 and beyond. It outlines the results of an in-depth analysis of the KS’s current operations, addressing the needs and challenges identified through the team’s experience and a series of interviews with key stakeholders, including the Associate Director General for Research Strategy and Innovation, regional leadership, the eight research lever directors, and research-support units. This commitment aims to foster impactful knowledge-sharing practices that drive the Alliance toward being a truly impactful and innovative agricultural research-for-development center.Item Accelerate for Impact Platform (A4IP) 2024 Year In Review(Report, 2025-03-21) Dowling, KevinAs a catalyst for entrepreneurial scientists, startups, and strategic partners, the CGIAR Accelerate for Impact Platform (A4IP) continued to foster interdisciplinary collaboration across this sector in 2024, bridging research from lab to market for tangible impact in agri-food systems. By co-designing, accelerating, and de-risking the development and deployment of science-based technology-driven solutions for agriculture and climate action, A4IP’s mission is aimed at a healthier, more equitable, and more sustainable future for all.Item Bioversity International Financial Statements 2023 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor's report.(Financial Report, 2024-06-07) Bioversity InternationalBioversity International’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item CIAT Financial Statements 2023 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor's report(Financial Report, 2024-06) International Center for Tropical AgricultureCIAT’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item A4IP 2023 Year in Review(Annual Report, 2024-02) CGIAR Accelerate for Impact PlatformItem CIAT Financial Statements 2022 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor's report(Financial Report, 2023-06-01) International Center for Tropical AgricultureCIAT’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item Bioversity International Financial Statements 2022 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor's report(Financial Report, 2023-06-01) Bioversity InternationalBioversity International’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item Bioversity International Financial Statements 2021 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor's report(Financial Report, 2022-07-01) Bioversity InternationalBioversity International’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item CIAT Financial Statements 2021 for the year ended 31 December(Financial Report, 2022-06-29) International Center for Tropical AgricultureCIAT’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item Cassava Annual Report 2020(Report, 2021-12-01) Becerra-Lopez Lavalle, Luis Augusto; Newby, Jonathan Craig; Zhang, Xiaofei; Bohorquez-Chaux, Adriana; Malik, Imran; Cuéllar, Wilmer Jose; Delaquis, Erik; Slavchevska, Vanya; Tran, Thierry; Chavarriaga, Paul; Escobar Pérez, Roosevelt HumbertoCassava cultivation, though labor intensive and often subsistence oriented, provides smallholders and landless farmers as well as processors and traders across the tropics with a vital entry point for creating employment and income. Outperforming other crops in poor soils and under unpredictable rainfall, cassava is also crucial for enhancing the resilience of crop production systems in the face of climate change. However, cassava will become more susceptible to pests and diseases, as climate change likely increases their range of mobility. Moreover, production costs and postharvest losses remain high; technology uptake is limited; and producers’ market links are weak, even though cassava serves as a feedstock for numerous industrial uses, including food, feed, and starch. The newly formed Alliance of Bioversity International and the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) recognizes the vital contribution that cassava makes to poverty reduction, and this is reflected in the objectives and outcomes of the Cassava Sub-Lever’s recently developed strategy. In addition, we have prepared a multidisciplinary workplan across our six strategic Research and Service Areas (RSAs). The RSAs help integrate work on cassava with the Alliance’s strategy and lever structure, and also provide us with an overarching framework for prioritizing investments and delivering impacts in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC )and Southeast Asia (SEA), while supporting the work of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in sub-Saharan Africa. Guided by this strategic framework, the Cassava Sub-Lever relies on multiple strengths to fulfill its mission of improving the livelihoods of smallholder farmers through genetic solutions to global problems that are fit for purpose within agricultural-economic-social-ecological systems. In operational terms, the RSAs create logical groupings of work around key themes and areas of expertise. In the sections that follow, we report on some of the noteworthy results that the Cassava Sub-Lever achieved in 2020 through its six RSAs.Item Bioversity International Financial Statements 2020 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor's report(Financial Report, 2021-06) Bioversity InternationalBioversity International’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.Item CIAT Financial Statements 2020 for the year ended 31 December: Including independent auditor’s report.(Financial Report, 2021-06) International Center for Tropical AgricultureCIAT’s financial mandate includes maintaining accountability and transparency in its finances, and to evaluate and communicate direct impact from our work to our donors, partners and the wider research and development community.
