Forward-Looking Review of the CGIAR Challenge Program on Water and Food (2013-2014)
The Challenge Program on Water and Food (CPWF) was a 10-year (January 1, 2004–December 31, 2013) investment by the CGIAR, conducted over two phases and aimed at an overarching goal of raising water productivity and improving food security while helping alleviate poverty, improve health, and attain environmental security. This review, undertaken between November 2013 and March 2014, was commissioned by CPWF to assess CPWF’s achievements, but also to identify lessons to take forward by CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs) and other research and development stakeholders.

Final Report on Ganges Coordination and Change Enabling Project (G5)
The Coordination and Change Enabling Project (G5) worked in providing an enabling environment that promote connectivity of project research across topics and scales, from household agriculture- aquaculture farming systems to community polder water management through broader land use planning. The project also served as an interface between the programme and a variety of existing and potential stakeholders and worked towards scaling out research results to multiple stakeholders with common interest in achieving the goals for the CPWF for the Ganges coastal zone.
