SGRP is guided by a steering committee, the Inter-Centre
Working Group on Genetic Resources (ICWG-GR), which
is composed of representatives from each of the
Centres and from the Food and Agriculture
Organization of the United Nations. The Committee
sets the strategy and priorities for SGRP, and meets
annually to agree a programme of activities,
including joint proposal development and
collaborative initiatives with full, partial or no
SGRP funding. Individual CGIAR Centres take the lead
on collaborative activities, depending on their
expertise.
An elected Executive Committee comprising the Chair plus
two other members works with the SGRP Secretariat to
carry out collective decisions. Decision-making is
by consensus, with cordial and constructive
Centre-to-Centre relationships reflecting a shared
commitment and concern for the common good.
Bioversity International (formerly IPGRI) is the Convening Centre for SGRP.
Its Director General is the Programme Leader and
Bioversity’s Board of Trustees is the governing body
for the Programme. Bioversity International provides
the SGRP Secretariat which has responsibility for
day-to-day coordination, and supports SGRP in the
areas of policy, representation, public awareness,
information management and fundraising.
