W1&2 Disbursement rate to CRP
from inception to December 31, 2014
% of W1&2 approved budget disbursed % elapsed time

8. Challenges in 2015
 Budget cuts: some Aid agencies are reporting budget cuts.
 Additional contributions: (e.g. one-off) may not happen at the same pace
as in 2013.
 Exchange rate: the exchange rates are fluctuating
(e.g. Euro->USD was 1.36 one year ago, now the rate is at 1.09 which correspond
to a drop of approx. 20% in only 12 months)
 Expectations: some donors are waiting/looking forward for the new SRF and more
importantly the new CRP portfolio.
Opportunities:  SRF: ensure focus, prioritization and accountability.
 CRP: propose a compelling research portfolio
responding to both donors and doers aspirations.
 Impact: agree on a set of Targets and Indicators aligned
with the Results Framework SLOs, IDOs and Sub-IDOs…
and establish a robust Monitoring and Evaluation
mechanism.

13. Final message: The importance of the
ISPC recommendations for the FC
 High appreciation of the ISPC reviews by the FC
 The independent reviews of the ISPC are essential in
the decision-making process
(e.g. CRPs, SRF, Open Access, Genebank,
Dryland Systems etc.)
 The ISPC participation and commitment
in various processes/meetings
(e.g. SRF, CRP 2nd Call etc.)
 Support to the ISPC Council members selection
