4-5 Project Ideas
* Need to have 1 hour session at next CSI meeting, but each group, within a month, to come up with a summary of group and work
plan, objectives (keep them realistic)
NOT YET FULLY TRANSFERRED TO TABLE
Website
- Need to actively coordinate with FAO, WFP - George could take on role, since he is already working with FAO on this. Need to
make sure it’s not crashing, not difficult. If we want to do something more with it (metadata development). What is the objective of
this? The clearinghouse approach is not working. Is it to find each other’s data or so the wider community can be aware? Need to
assess if it is working. Should check the web stats to see how many people are accessing it.
Training and capacity building
- Website has a space for the training part – data etc. pooled. Alice, Kai, others have training modules to share, to put in the
website.
- Sibiry – we can learn from START. They have been developing ACC (African Climate Change) fellowship program to send
out invitations for proposals. We proposed at ICRISAT and we have been selected to have fellows/interns. Interesting
experience to develop on program to focus on geospatial tools. Sibiry to put in contact with person who has more details on the
program.
- Sibiry mentioned of a master copy to deliver training classes to participants (ESRI author classes). Who do we need to send
this master account for. ESRI-CGIAR MOU. It’s acceptable to anyone who has signed the ESRI-CGIAR MOU. Need to sign
the agreement and pay the annual fee.
Outreach
Sibiry – more scope in getting things done and reaching out to farmers, to focus on regions. I have because I’m not expert on climate
change for example. Attach a topic to regions. We are always accused of lacking focus. I’ve been told by breeders repeatedly that they
don’t trust us. Maybe we look more at geographic scales, maybe regional or lower level.
Partnership
5. -Andy: in the WG we identified, those teams can identify partners.
- Kate: SERVIR – potential funding – some funds can be mobilized for research
- George: WFP to explore potential on partnership
Task Force for each of the topics:
- What do working groups do -- need to have 1 hour session at next CSI meeting, but each group, within a month, to come up
with a summary of group and work plan, objectives (keep them realistic)
Enrica
- Negotiate one license paid for on behalf of the centers.

Stanley Wood
Two elements of risk – aligning with a specific donor with a specific business; and question of identity – are we CSI or are we
AGCommons
On the benefits side – general feeling that AGCOmmons is a really useful notion of pushing us further – what is additional thing we
are going to do in outreach; we are basically researchers and foundation is action development – maybe this group could serve as a
sort of scientific watchdogs; perhaps the member of CSI could be useful to AGCommons implementation team to help identify
opportunities and help AGCommons design program around partnering
It’s helping us articulate what we want to do and package it. We also got information here on the thematic side.
