REU program at CIAT: WHY?
1. Advance Research • for reaching client groups– on the ground• for policy change (toward) client groups)
2. Shape R+ D (affect implementation)
3. Serve as a framework for Funding
CIAT Working Group: REU- Dec 2008
Reaching Endusers is a CORE VALUE at CIAT
![Page 7: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
REU RESEARCH Advances
Example 1: Beans: moving of varieties- Africa
Example 2: Agro-enterprise: linking farmers to markets
![Page 8: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Moving of bean varieties : Africa
Problem: varieties not getting out fast enough or widely enough

STRONG RESEARCH ON MARKETING• Small packs
– 75g (‘cup of tea’)– 200g– 400g
• Multiple varieties
• In venues farmers’ frequent
• With Information-from trusted source

SUMMARY: REU Research Beans
Tested Partnership reorganization
Tested Market innovation (GATES/AGRA)
Developed production and model- for use in 24 countries- across crops
Opened up lucrative possibilities- private sector.
Developed a model which reaches even poor women
.... Reached… 8 million households (5 years)
![Page 20: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Agro-enterprise REU challenge
Productivity is not enough to reduce poverty Markets are also needed Questions from NGOs
– Methods and tools for market linkages?– Training & backstopping on tool usage?
Questions from CIAT– How to move from training to co-learning?– How to achieve impact at scale?
![Page 21: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Organizing principles
Clear and shared objectives. Shared responsibilities, costs and benefits. Outputs as inputs for innovation. Differentiated but linked learning mechanisms. Long-term, trust-based relationships.
![Page 23: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Learning cyclesDevelopment of key questions
(what do we want to learn?)
Document external knowledge (literature)
Document field experience (local, national)
How can we use/improve ‘good practice’ (prototype 1.0 - toolkits of approaches, methods,
tools and policies)
Capacity development
Shared documentation, analysis, reflection and learning around the selected topic
Field application (context A)
Field application (context B)
Field application (context C)
Existing ‘good practice’(what is already known?)
Policy implications / briefs
Empirical evidence for theory
development
Improved practice (prototype 2.0)
Contributions to large-scale,
systemic change

SUMMARY: Agro enterprise REU
Uptake of CIAT research outputs, business models Major organizational changes in partners More effective collaboration between development and
research agencies Sustainable platform for science for impact, not just for
agro enterprise And field level impacts in more 30+ countries
![Page 29: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
SUMMARY :Types of REU Impacts
• New organizational models developed for science for impact• Policy Changes (public, NGO, donor and private)• Re-focus on ---Types of end users redefined• Scaling up processes refined (across countries, across
regions,-- global changes)
• (and yes. massive results on the ground: # people reached, $$$ income, distribution of benefits– toward poor, marginalized, women
QUESTION: Is this just ‘DELIVERY”

PROPOSED STEPS FOR MOVING FORWARDCIAT team:
1. Review what is our ‘reaching end-user mandate’ (what is ‘in’ what is ‘out’)
2. Synthesize some of the ‘startling’ High profile lessons (maybe edited volume)
3. Synthesize STRATEGIC VISION, STRATEGIC PATHS
4. Map: intra-center (+ partner) opportunities for impact, on-the ground synergies
5. Fund raise- specifically Strategic ‘REU’
![Page 39: Reaching End-Users: Facts for helping CIAT move forward on strategic program development](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070317/5562ed3cd8b42a38778b5376/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
CHECKLIST for REU Program Development
Question
1. Does CIAT adhere to the goal of ‘Science for impact’
2. Does CIAT currently engage in REU activity
3. Will CIAT intensify REU activity in the future
4. Does REU demand strategic work in areas of :• Organization al models• Client-oriented policy• Methods development• Shared agenda setting
No Yes
