Editor's Notes
- In this presentation I’m reporting on gender results of CCAFS work in regards to three areas:
- Mode of Operation: The Advisory Committee, the Coordinator, the PIM Director, and any interested members of the PIM MC will meet virtually every quarter (except the quarter in which the annual gender research workshop is held). The Advisory Committee members will be invited to attend the annual gender research workshop, and on that occasion will meet in person with the Coordinator and the PIM Director or representative. At least three of the five Committee members should be available for the quarterly meetings to constitute a quorum. The Advisory Committee will not have a chair. The Gender Coordinator will have responsibility to write brief minutes of the meetings, which will be shared with the PIM PMU and MC. Members of the Advisory Committee will serve for a term of three years and will receive a modest honorarium for their contribution. Honoraria for employees of CGIAR will be included in the agreements that PIM signs with their home Centers. Committee members will maintain informal and regular communication with gender researchers within CGIAR and with partner organizations to remain alert to suggestions for improvement and examples of good practice.

- Interdisciplinary, cross-CRP collaboration to inform breeding programs & build capacity;
- Generate applied learning and increase inter-disciplinary knowledge within and across CRP breeding programs to enhance gender-responsive breeding
