About the System Office

The System Office helps to capture wider system opportunities by identifying and pursuing opportunities to increase effectiveness, reduce costs, and enhance the funding of the System as a whole.

The System Office integrates and improves existing services in four functional categories:

  • Strategic planning and development
  • Monitoring and Evaluation
  • Communication and Resource Mobilization
  • Management Services

The System Office is made up of eight units which together assist the CGIAR System to implement its vision, mission and strategy. The virtual office was established to enhance the efficiency, responsiveness and overall performance of each unit.
