The immediate objectives of the CPWFFood
security for all at household levelPoverty
alleviation through increased sustainable
livelihoods in rural and peri-urban
areasImproved health through better nutrition,
lower agriculture-related pollution and reduced
water-related diseasesEnvironmental security
through improved water quality as well as the
maintenance of water-related ecosystem services,
including biodiversity

Expected research outputs Varieties with superior
abiotic stress tolerance and improved water
productivity Technologies that enhance farmers
livelihood and water productivity at field
level Interventions that enhance water
productivity at agro-ecosystem and irrigation
system level Tools and methodologies to assess
the impact of interventions on crop performance,
water productivity, water balance components,
soil and water quality Institutional arrangements
that encourage farmers to adopt water
productivity enhancing technologies

From Phase 1 to Phase 2(Clause 6 of Project
Agreement)
  • Milestone plan (will be used later in milestone
    reporting)
  • Finalized and detailed work plan and Gantt chart
  • Final budget
  • Schedule of payment
  • Intellectual asset audit

15
Technical Reports(Clause 8 of Project Agreement)
  • Reports are required to be submitted to the
    Managing Center, Theme Leader and Basin
    Coordinator on a
  • Three month basis (milestone report only)
  • Six month basis (prescribed format milestone
    report)
  • Nine month basis (milestone report only)
  • Twelve month basis (prescribed format milestone
    report)
  • The Recipient (i.e. IRRI) will collate individual
    reports from all partners
