• Set the Context: Overview of agricultural and rural development trends, challenges and perceived needs of the region

• Understand the Baseline: Examining CIAT Asia's achievements so far • The Thought Process:

– Establish goals and targets for research impact and resource mobilization (quantitative and qualitative) – Map needs of the region to CIAT's research for development expertise– Prioritize countries and research areas– Discuss current concept notes and proposals and generate ideas for new concept notes– Match concept note ideas to calls, donors and partners – Identify resource requirements (funding, partnerships, skills development, personnel, monitoring

mechanisms)– Define metrics and processes for monitoring and evaluation– Establish timelines

• Solicit Feedback: Discuss with key donors/partners• The Next Steps:

– Develop an overall execution and management plan– Develop a strategy document for communications (?)
