Performance Indicators - 2006

The CGIAR Performance Measurement (PM) System was first piloted in 2004. It has helped IWMI and other centers to understand their own performance and has also brought in a higher level of accountability, while helping in decision making for fund allocation. From its inception, this system was evaluated and refined to better reflect the performance of centers in the CGIAR system. This is why in 2006 some criteria were changed and new indicators were added. The following data is extracted from IWMI’s 2006 performance indicators and covers selected areas: output targets, significant outcomes, publications, gender and diversity, staff training, governance and partnerships.

Indicator Notes Value 2006 Value 2005
Number of peer-reviewed  publications per scientist in 2006 (excluding articles published in journals listed in the Thomson Scientific/ISI)

Only non-ISI peer reviewed journal articles counted for 2006. This is a change from previous years where all peer reviewed journal articles were counted.
The total number of peer reviewed journal articles in 2006 was 85, but only 21 are counted here as 64 are ISI. If the criteria used in previous years were applied to 2006, then the total peer-reviewed publications will be 180 and the indicator will be 1.94.
