Irrigated Rice Research Consortium

Organization & Structure

The IRRI IRRC has a management team (MT) consisting of the four Work Group facilitators and the IRRC coordinator, who heads the Coordination Unit. The MT is responsible for project planning and budget allocation. It is the hub of the information and activities of the IRRC. The MT has a dynamic relationship with national research and extension personnel, NGOs, private industry, farmer groups, and other stakeholders.

The Steering Committee (SC) of the IRRC is composed of NARES representatives from Asian member countries, the IRRI deputy director general for research (ex officio), and the IRRC coordinator (secretary and ex officio). The SC provides direction and guidance to the MT and is the policy-making body of the Consortium. The SC plays an important role in raising the profile of the IRRC in Asia and in promoting linkages with policymakers at the government level.
