Report of the First Review of Systemwide Programmes with an Ecoregional Approach

The purpose of the Review was to assess the experiences that have been gained by the CGIAR Centres and their partners since 1994 in implementing the Systemwide Programmes with an ecoregional approach. The Review was conducted by analysis of programme documentation, surveying stakeholders' opinions and selective field visits.
The ecoregional approach is aimed at the sustainable improvement of agricultural productivity. It is conceptually holistic, combining human and technical dimensions and linking productivity and natural resource management (NRM) concerns.
