Our Donors

We are grateful to all the organizations who have supported our efforts to build a sustainable food future since 1967 and enabled CIAT (International Center for Tropical Agriculture) to advance our objectives to reduce hunger and poverty, and improve human nutrition in the tropics.

CIAT’s research is made possible by the multi-donor CGIAR Fund as well as by grants from many organizations, some of which are also Fund donors.
