Edition 1

Synopsis (short abstract) The overall goal of the research carried out by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) and its partners continues to be to improve the livelihood of low-income people in developing countries through reduced poverty, food insecurity, malnutrition, gender inequality, and child mortality, to help cope with HIV/AIDS, and to foster better institutions, policies, and sustainable management of natural resources of particular importance to agriculture and poor people. The goal is fully compatible with the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the CGIAR aims to make the greatest possible contribution not only to their achievement but also to the achievement of similar goals beyond 2015. This aim is reflected in the effort to set priorities for CGIAR research to 2015 reported here.

    ASB team members are very appreciative of the tremendous effort put forth by the Review Panel to produce a carefully considered, objective and thorough evaluation of the ASB System-wide Programme. This is the fourth external review of the ASB Programme, but the first sponsored by the CGIAR. We greatly appreciate the Science Councils interest in and support for this timely review. It focuses far more than previous reviews on the Programmes impact in the words of the Panel, on its accomplishments and original contributions to the understanding and practice of iNRM in the worlds tropical forest margins. The members of the ASB Consortium, its Global Steering Group (GSG), and its Global Coordination Office (GCO) have found this review to be particularly useful in stimulating thought and discussion about the impacts of the Programme, the effectiveness of our informal organisational structure, and our future directions. We value the insights and recommendations put forth by the panel and , as we move forward into our second decade, we see this review as a significant benchmark against which we will be able to measure the success of current and future endeavours.
