Purpose
CGIAR has adopted the principle of adaptive 
management as a strategy which includes a 
re-planning process that recognizes that planning is 
an iterative process and plans need to be flexible 
enough to be adapted, incorporating the 
knowledge and learning gained from the reflect 
process into decision-making, allowing for changes 
to plans to achieve the expected results.
This document provides the 2023 refocused Plan of 
Results and Budget (PORB) for the CGIAR 
Rethinking Food Markets Initiative following the 
re-planning process that took place in February to 
June 2023. This updated 2023 PORB has 
considered the reflected recommendations, 
including changes to 2023 budgets, 
implementation timelines and results to ensure the 
initiative success.
