At their best, information systems can help us to manage complexity, track our progress and build collective action. In this session we will look at three interlinking examples of information systems intended to capture this value for CGIAR:

Philippe Ellul, Senior Program Officer, will present the CGIAR Level Research Interoperability System (CLARISA), a dashboard consolidating CGIAR result-based management systems across the consortium.
Marie Angelique Laporte will present a pilot of the Sustainable Development Goals Interface Ontology for tracking progress and building transparency around the CGIAR Strategic Results Framework in light of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Brian Lowe of Ontocale will present the newly-developed “Find a CGIAR Expert” system, an ontology-based tool for identifying expertise and collaborative relationships within CGIAR.
