For the 2021 Annual Report, there will be three rounds, or 'batches' of quality assessment (QA) to reduce staff time needs in 2022.
Lead Centers can decide when to submit data, depending on staff and data availability.
Data can be submitted in different batches, but please aim for a critical mass rather than small amounts of information per batch.
Batch 1
Annual Report data submission: Friday, 3 December 2021
(QA process: 6-17 December 2021)
Batch 2
Annual Report data submission: Friday, 4 March 2022
(QA process: 7-18 March 2022)
Batch 3
Annual Report data submission: Friday, 29 April 2022
(QA process 4 May - 1 June 2022)
Annual Report 2021 (including all data): Friday, 29 April 2022
Please send your final planning and reporting documents to Isabelle Osman (I.Osman@cgiar.org) and copy PlanningAndReporting@cgiar.org.
