CGIAR SITE INTEGRATION
NATIONAL CONSULTATION WORKSHOP FOR MALI
ICRISAT-Samanko, Bamako, Mali
March 01-02, 2016

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction: This report highlights the key points of the national consultation workshop on
CGIAR site integration in Mali that was held on 1 –2 March 2016 at the ICRISAT research station
at Samanko, Bamako, Mali. The workshop brought together representatives of the CGIAR centers
and CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs) working in Mali and their key partners/stakeholders in the
agriculture sector to discuss how the CGIAR Centers and CRPs can work in an integrative manner
to better support the country’s agriculture research and development agenda.
Nearly 70 participants attended the two-day workshop including representatives from the Ministry
of Agriculture, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), donor community, private sectors,
CGIAR centers and Farmers group. At the end of the two-day consultation, the participants came
up with a draft framework of the site integration, which includes the current status of CGIAR in
Mali, principles, gaps and opportunities for site integration, resourcing, communication within and
outside the CG as well as mechanisms to monitor progress and assess activities and impact. The
following is a recap of the main outputs of the integration workshop. Each session ends with a
“lesson learned” note to summarize the key recommendations and statements from the participants.
1. National consultations Prior to the workshop, it clearly appeared from discussions with
key stakeholders that the government, research community officials, NGOs and other
national actors in the agricultural sector looked forward to the concept of site integration.
Pre-workshop consultations happened with CG center partners, NGO executives, and
national research actors. The Institut d’Economie Rurale (IER), the national research
institute welcomed the integration initiative and highlighted the need for CG centers to
continue their technical support through training younger scientists. In terms of supporting
the site integration, national partners have reiterated their availability to exchange
experience and facilitate CG access to farmers on the ground. The Alliance for a Green
Revolution in Africa (AGRA) highlighted the importance of coordinated and joint
programming and the opportune time for such consultations especially with regard to
promoting value chain. The International Relief and Development (IRD) and Syngenta
Foundation for a Sustainable Agriculture, executives praised the integration agenda and
strongly recommended that the upcoming plan addresses the transformation and income
generating needs for producers. NGO community was thankful for the workshop and
expressed concerns about funding and the need for continued training to benefit farmer
cooperatives. During the opening ceremony, Dr. David Yanggen (Team Leader, Office of
Economic Growth USAID/Mali) ), Dr. Ibrehima N’Diaye (Scientific Director of the
National Research Institute-IER) and Dr. Ramadjita Tabo (ICRISAT Regional Director for
West and Central Africa) gave the welcoming and opening remarks and reiterated the need
of coordination to effectively utilize the resources for better impact.
Key lessons learned: The relevance of site integration at country-level: For more efficiency and
increased impact, stronger coordination and collaboration are key. There is a strategic advantage
to integrate activities and programs for the benefit of the final beneficiaries in light of the
challenges linked to funding and human resources.

2. CGIAR activity mapping and current status: The major observation in the two day
consultation workshop was that the interventions at country level are happening in an
isolated way. As a result, little or no impact can be shown, hence the need for integration.
ICRISAT shared with the plenary a document depicting CGIAR centers and CRPs work
across Mali. The document includes different programs/projects, collaborating partners,
sources of funding and regional and district location of projects. The exercise helped
participants to understand who is doing what and where. In addition, the CGIAR Site
Integration Process Steering Committee has asked for participants inputs to improve the
document. As an example, three more CRPs (from the works of IITA and Bioversity in
Mali) were added to the draft and a more consolidated version will be shared with the
participants in due course. It is important to stress that a short presentation about the ARD
in Mali was provided by IER to inform participants on the long history of State supported
research activities in all Mali regions.
Key lessons learned: This introductory session served as background information for participants
to build on their individual experiences within their organizations. It also helped the CG partners
to upgrade and improve the draft inventory of various research and project partnerships in Mali.
3. Gaps and opportunities for integrated implementation: Politically, Mali has a
decentralized administration, and that will certainly have a huge impact as the CG partners
move toward site integration. With that in mind, gaps and opportunities were largely
discussed by participants during a plenary session. Highlights include the following:
The necessity for CG integration plan to ensure alignment and complementarity
with existing national policies
The necessity for the government to finance research and dissemination (extension)
The necessity to decentralize research to bridge the gap of lack of assistance in
certain areas of the country
The demographic situation affecting investments in agricultural research and
dissemination / Population explosion is to be considered as a key opportunity in
agricultural research and sites integration
Synergy and harmonized intervention will bear greater impact and easier
monitoring and evaluation as well as reporting
Need to define common monitoring and evaluation system (indicators) is crucial in
integration
More harmonized indicators will be key to measure the impact under site
integration
Integration will fill in the gap in areas of Mali where research partners are absent
and synergy means that we can do much with the available resources
Integration opportunities will help promote the dissemination and adoption of new
technologies, business and enterprise development, capacity building, value
addition, improve productivity with focus on climate change, and sustain
smallholder systems.

Training of researchers, producers and NGOs staff to improve the existing gap in
extension systems
Key lessons learned: Participants have a clear understanding of what the gaps and opportunities
are. In addition, they have proposed concrete ideas to improve the collaboration among research
partners, NGOs and producers. Another key lesson addresses the need for research to go beyond
the production stage and focus on empowering farmers and NGOs to develop value chain
4. Towards a common understanding of current status: In this session the facilitator led
the participants through an exercise to help reach a common understanding of the meaning
of integration and the principles that would guide the CGIAR and national partners in the
process. By the end of the session participants agreed integration entails the different
CGIAR centers and CRPs, their national partners and other stakeholders along the value
chain coming together to work for a common goal consisting of improving the farmers’
living conditions through food security.
Three working groups reflected on the following topics (i) key features of integration, (ii)
principles for selecting sites, and integrating actions, and (iii) towards effective collaboration and
cooperation. The following is a compilation of working group highlights.
Working Group inputs
Question 1: Key features of integration
Conduct a mapping of existing initiatives
Ensure common vision and objectives
Define roles and responsibilities for each partner
Harmonize approaches
Ensure transparency
Account for ecological issues in the intervention zones
Ensure equity and good governance
Some basic conditions for successful integration sites in Mali will therefore include:
Common vision and objectives of intervening partners
Common interest of different partners of the sites
Common ecological constraints of interventions zones/sites
Definition and clear attribution of roles and responsibilities of implementing partners
Good governance system (security and stability in intervention areas)
Pooling of human and financial resources
Needs and opportunities for complementarity
Transparency and openness to sharing information
5
Equity for all implementing partners
Interventions targeting the needs of end users of research findings
Question 2: Principles for selecting sites, and integrating actions
Necessity for integration plans to align with national policy/ Sites activities are align
on national priorities/ Relevance to the country's national policy
Coherence in the site selection criteria (with focus on agro ecology and vulnerability
issues)/ a definition of common criteria for selection areas of integration areas
Typology of actors for complementarity (transverse and vertical)
Resource availability
Ensure prioritization as per available funding
Openness and effective communication between stakeholders
Ensure impact and sustainability
Ensure monitoring and evaluation
Question 3: towards effective collaboration and cooperation
Partnership documents establishing principles and conditions (Memorandum of
Understanding -MOU)
Functional coordination framework at different levels by empowering each structure
involved/ cadre for regular consultations
Regular meetings and information sharing among all stakeholders
Independent governance/steering committee
Joint activity planning and networking
Sustainable and innovative funding mechanism (including internal resource
mobilization, public/private partnership)
Promotion both internal (among partners) and external communications with emphasis
on learning from successes (documenting and sharing successes)
Good governance and transparency
Value chains research focus
Design programs on longer terms
Ensure there is complementarity between national research institutions and CGIAR
CGIAR to support capacity building for national research institution staff
Designing innovative platforms for fund raising
Monitoring and evaluation strategy (including usage of multimedia tools for reporting)
Joint planning of activities for more complementarity
Other recommendations of Day 1 (from plenary session):
Producers must be fully involved in development and dissemination of improved
technologies/ trainings.
6
Go beyond traditional research and extension system approach and ensure that producers
get the most from research findings, impacting and improving their livelihoods in a more
concrete manner
Make iterative research to understand why some research findings are not always used by
producers
The private sector (eg. seed companies) need more involvement in research extension
because they can reach out to many farmers in remote areas but there is also a need to train
agro dealers to be more effective providers of input in communities
Develop a dynamic framework for consultation, involving stakeholders of agricultural
research at the regional level (not only at national level- thus call for a decentralized
extension system)
Define the roles of various actors in the context of integration and existing experiences as
starting for a broader-integration strategy among CGIAR centers and partners research
programs activities
Take opportunities of growing population and of the youth
It is important to harmonize research and extension methods, indicators, in order to have
readable interventions.
Involve producers and farmers organizations at all level, not only when it comes to
dissemination. Producers must be involved even in setting up the objectives the criteria of
varietal selection to facilitate ownership
Consider dynamics (constraints evolutions) in designing our interventions and adapt when
needed to evolution.
More engagement of politics is required in favor of agricultural extension
Identify strategies of resources mobilization at country level
Consider accountability (impact) as main indicator in site integration
Create or revitalize consultation for partners in agricultural research for development given
that the existing NGO consultation frameworks (eg. CCA ONG and SECO ONG) do not
seem to be very functional
The NGOs are key players in the extension system (with proven results in micro dosing,
warehouse system and mechanization) and a better coordination will therefore improve
their impact
We need to achieve results and impacts on farmers livelihood with less funding
Creation of thematic working groups will help in a context of integrated approach. Such
thematic working groups exists in the humanitarian sector which could inspire the creation
of thematic working groups in agricultural research from development.
Key lessons learned: The group discussions were conducted very well and allowed all participants
to share their views in a constructive and open way. This working group has demonstrated the vast
knowledge that participants have about integration, principles for site selection and collaboration.
At the end of day 1, the steering committee met to review the day and made recommendations for
the next day with specific focus on the methodology, encouraging more participation, and
alternative ways to discuss the session about resourcing given the absence of enough donors at
these national consultations to constitute a panel.
7
5- Operational aspects of integration: Day 2 kicked off with a brief recap of the previous
day. Participants suggested the addition of inputs about gender, value chain and the
partnership with local community radio stations as the CGIAR designs the integration plan.
This session gave participants the opportunity to discuss how integration will be done
differently. This session also helped understand the concept of site integration and
opportunities to learn from success stories such as Africa-RISING, a USAID-funded
project implemented in Mali and several African countries by multi-CG centers and
national partners. As an alternative measure to tackle funding issues, participants stressed
the importance of designing joint programs and jointly mobilize resources to fund these
proposals. The value added of such approach is to speak with one voice and advocate for
common goals. In addition, a strong suggestion was made to design projects and activities
focusing first on what resources are available at the local level. As a lead national partner,
IER gave a short presentation about how the ARD is funded in Mali.
At this point, several questions and comments were shared by participants and the facilitation team
including CGIAR representatives provided answers in the framework of a global initiative as Mali
is one of the 20 countries selected for CGIAR integration hubs.
Some key points of the discussions of the second day were:
The establishment of a framework for dialogue between NGOs operating in the framework
of Agricultural Research for Development is highly desirable.
Moving forward, partners need to be working together closely. Donors want to see the
value of their contribution on the ground; we have to think on how to complement each
other without competition
Integrate gender and youth at all levels of intervention sites.
Monitoring and evaluation will be key
Funding and resource mobilization: reaching out the public-private partnership
Governance and transparency (fairness)
Who is funding the Agricultural Research for Development (AR4D)?
Resource mobilization and allocation came out as a major issue to integration and participants
agreed that they have to develop strategies of resources mobilization; and that innovative resources
mobilization strategies are required both at the CGIAR and national systems.
At the national level there are also mechanisms for innovative financing but often this is not known
by actors who missing such opportunity (eg. Fonds Climat Vert). In terms of engagement, the
majority of financing will soon switch to private sectors. There are players in the private sector
projects who are willing to invest more money in agricultural areas that needed to be considered.
It is really important to pay attention to dynamics of the banking sector. Some NGOs testifies that
they are already experiencing the benefit of partnering with this sector. To maximize their strategy
and make the most of the banking sector, the CGIAR centers and the national agricultural research
system need to mobilize financing together as a network and not as individual organizations. In
8
addition, the CGIAR centers should think on how to use the resources available while exploring
new opportunities for resources mobilization.
On the other hand, National financing is necessary in order to preserve the independence and the
country's sovereignty and to sustain funding. In any case, resource mobilization should consider
two levels: the one that strategic research funding and the other to target applied research (to
achieve solutions and immediate impact). The private sectors (eg. Banking institutions) is likely
to support when it comes to funding of applied research for immediate impact and change in the
livelihood of farmers. Still there is a need to sustain strategic research with funding of traditional
donors.
Participants were invited to use existing experiences of integration like Africa RISING project
using a multi-disciplinary team of experts from different CGIAR and partners. Such integration
experiences exist at a reduced scale, but can be worked out at scale as part of an integration of the
CGIAR and this need to expand to NGOs, national structures etc. Major Difficulties in integration
as experienced within the Africa RISING project was to harmonize protocols; organize joint visits
and learning events as each partner has its own agenda as well. CGIAR and partners sites
integration should also include an approach with donors in order to associate activities of different
projects from various donors whenever required.
During the plenary session following the recap of the key points of first days, participants were
informed of the creation of Agricultural training center by one of the local NGO (AMEDD) based
in Koutiala. The training center offers opportunities for joint learning in the case of remote sensing,
soil analysis, and hosting researchers from different centers. Participants appreciated such
initiative and recommended it to be part of the site integration plan in particular when none of the
CG centers has regional offices in Mali. Also, the University of Segou was recommended for
collaboration as we are developing the site integration plan. An agricultural University will soon
open in Sikasso It was recommended to develop a strategic plan to tap on the opportunities that
are offered by these proposed training centers in the CGIAR site integration plan..
To close the plenary, a brief presentation of IER was made: IER is the main agricultural research
and extension system in Mali consisting of 17 national programs. About 800 staff members were
deployed at the different regions of Mali trough six regional centers organized as per agro-
ecological zones. IER has partnerships protocols and agreements with many actors of the AR4D.
This shows that IER is important for the site integration plan as it is working in different agro-
ecological zones and demographic conditions of Mali.
Key Lessons learned: Gender and value chains are essential features to be incorporated in the
integration plan. Participants feel strongly about optimizing the existing resources to develop and
implement integration activities and programs even before additional/new funding is available.
For example, the current initiative of AMEDD to have a training center in the cotton belt zone and
the government plan to open agricultural university in Sikasso were taken as opportunities for the
site integration work in Mali. In addition the presence of the national agricultural research center,
IER, was important for the CGIAR site integration work. Finally participants were informed about
potential funds that organizations could apply for, for example, Fonds Climat Vert.

Progress tracking and impact assessment was briefly presented by Dr. Hippolyte Affognon
(Senior Project Manager) to allow participants to discuss their views on how monitoring and
evaluation should be developed under the new integration formula. The goal of this presentation
was to bring participants to examine the challenge of blending different M&E approaches and
methodologies by different centers and partners in a way that did not create additional workload
as the CG works toward integration. A short presentation on Communication and CGIAR
integration was made by Agathe Diama (ICRISAT communications officer for West and Central
Africa) on communications opportunities in the context of site integration.
Main highlights of Progress tracking and impact assessment showed: the objective of progress
tracking and impact assessment is to monitor and evaluate interventions in order to take corrective
actions on time and to document the impact on beneficiaries. Because the integration means
different expertise from various independent institutions (with their own agenda) are working in
partnership, tackling complex problems, where there are a number of inter-connected issues, where
progress relies on the interactions of many different actors. So important are the processes of
transformation and change that are owned collectively (and not the result of a causal chain
beginning with ‘inputs’ and controlled by donors but result of a complex web of interactions
between different). Therefore all CG centers should be involved with the participations of all
partners including the beneficiaries and Monitoring and impact Evaluation specialists from the
centers involved. The IDRC model was suggested for Outcomes mapping as well the USAID
model, but in general this will look at different models existing models (taking into consideration
donors’ requirements)
The question on how to harmonize different models as different donors fund different projects
highlighted the need to design a model that fits the need of the integration through a well-defined
impact pathway and theory of change, description of a set of assumptions that explain the steps
that lead to a long-term goal and the connection between activities and the outcomes of
interventions. Along with this, a progress tracking and impact assessment is required at the
beginning of the intervention with a baseline data collection. It is crucial to coordinate the baseline
data collection among CG centers and develop a database, routine interventions monitoring in
order to focus on inputs, processes and outputs. Intervention evaluation that addresses outcome
and impact level results is part of this tracking system.
Communications is important in integration as it create mutual understanding, strengthen
relationships among site stakeholders and thus avoid duplication, thus getting all stakeholders
contribution to foster impact as they are all engaged and committed to achieve impact and visibility
around share vision.
The role of communication is therefore to help unify the different entities and ensure they are
speaking in harmony (in one voice), help create mechanisms for on-going dialogue to enhance
interaction among partners, ensure effective delivery of results from our research to intended
beneficiaries (effective communications and outreach tools). Moreover, the communication
10
practices will help bridges the gaps between research, policy, and development practitioners
involved and, enhance the uptake and development impact of research.
Communication opportunities in integration include:
Establishing a mechanism for ongoing dialogue and engagement with partners
Developing a process for engagement with partners, policymakers, etc.
Collaborating in producing communication materials
Setting up mechanisms for data compilation and management
Establishing joint extension support system or advisory services
Extension using ICT-based tools or new media
Capacity building e.g., in out-scaling, delivery mechanisms, knowledge management etc.
Publishing – Capturing and disseminating research products and outputs of the site;
Internal communication – Linking and connecting centers and research program teams.
Organizing and facilitating an annual learning and out-scaling event bringing together
partners from across the site and associated organizations (participants will include
researchers from the CGIAR, other development actors, funders, and other
national/regional actors likely to contribute to or benefit from the site activities). This could
also act as a review and planning mechanism across the site as a whole.
Organizing joint visits, events, studies, survey, supporting ‘peer exchange, learning’ visits,
as well Innovations platforms.
After these short presentations, the facilitator led the participants through group work to discuss
the following questions. Below is a summary of the group discussions:
Question 1: How would the impact pathway look like? What are the concrete ways to track
progress and assess the impact of our interventions, alignment and contribution to the
national agricultural development program? The following were the outcomes of group
discussions:
Impact involves qualitative and quantitative change (social behavioral change) and
can be measured through the percentage and/or number of people/villages who have
adopted the new technologies for example. Baselines should be established before
project activities are implemented to enable measure the changes.
Impact entails food security, nutrition, environment, health and economic growth.
Impact goes beyond direct beneficiaries of our programs and interventions.
Concrete ways to track progress should follow a harmonized plan that is
participatory.
Define resources (human, financial and logistical).
Question 2: What are the expected communication needs under the integrated approach?
What does strategic communication include?
Joint strategies and communication plans need to be in place
11
Internal communication among stakeholders :
– Exchange platforms among stakeholders
– Web site, online platforms, etc.
• External communication :
– Visibility of actions
– Dissemination of results using social marketing strategies
– A coherent communication plan will involves media (radio, TV, print such as
Articles/brochures, policy briefs, Web site, and others digital tools such as
telephone (text, vocal and visual) and online platforms as well.
For both Internal and external communication the strategies will include
Sharing outputs through technology (social marketing)
Farmer to farmer exchanges/learning events
Site stakeholders learning events
Sharing information on existing opportunities (call for propositions) and research
finding via online tools and conventional methods
Mechanisms to listening of feedback from beneficiaries/users of technologies
Periodic compilation of information and issue of an information letter (document)
on progress of the site integration and impacts
Consultation framework for stakeholders
Integrate communications actors (radio, TV etc.) as partners from the beginning
Exchanges visits, fairs (all stakeholders including researchers,
extensionists/producers)
Seminars/workshops
Training programs/capacity building
E-trainings/ E-forum
Digital tools (phone, SMS…)
Social networking focal point
Question 3: Identify at least two mechanisms for data/resource/experience sharing
Data and experience sharing: through web sites, e-discussion, multi actor platforms,
and networking
Designing joint projects
Strategic planning and resource mobilization
Question 4: What methodology to follow for joint planning of events/studies/visits?
Concept Notes
Annual (regular) meetings/retreats
Policy notes

6 Closing Remarks
In the closing event Dr. Ramadjita Tabo shared with the participants the next steps as per the
integration process for Mali towards the revision of the relevant CRPs Phase II. Dr. Tabo made
a remark that during the next few days, a summary report of the national consultation on
CGIAR site integration for Mali will be submitted to the Consortium Office (CO) in
Montpellier. On 29 April 2016 a Site Integration Plan for Mali should be submitted to the
Consortium Office. This plan will be used to revise the relevant CRPs Phase II. The evaluation
allowed the participants to comment on what worked well and what needed improvement “It
is the first time that researchers from different CGIAR centers and all their partners are
gathered in such a manner to find ways of integrating their interventions. This is even
important for a coherent strategy of resources mobilization,” said Dr. Antoine Kalingarine
(Coordinator of the World Agroforestry Sahel Node)”. We are looking forward to participate
in a more integrative and collective efforts to reach more farmers in remote areas” said
Madam Coulibaly Maimouna Sidibe (CEO FASO KABA Seed Company). “The CGIAR and
partners are showing great interest to finding solutions together with farmers. We look forward
to contributing to the integration plan of the CGIAR site in Mali,” said Mr. Boba AN. Dakouo,
producer and President of the Union des Agriculteurs du Cercle de Tominian –UACT (Farmers
Union of Circle of Tominian), a farmers organization based in southern Mali. “We’ve started
building something great. The aspirations and need of researchers, producers and policies
were heard. This exercise needs to be continued with commitments and no delays. I thank
ICRISAT for taking the lead with others CGIAR centers to organizing these consultations”
added Dr. Bourema Dembele- Director General of IER. Finally the CGIAR site integration
local organizing committee chair Dr. Birhanu Zemadim expressed his gratitude to all
participants for their active engagement and inputs. He thanked his CG colleagues who
contributed usefully to the event, the organizing team, the Process Steering Committee
members, the interpreters as well as the facilitation team for their commitment for this first
experience in Mali.
