<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background">Background</h2></div>

<p>Bioversity International is a research-for-development organization focused on safeguarding and using agricultural biodiversity to help meet challenges such as adaptation to <a href="Climate_change" title="Climate change">climate change</a> and increased sustainable production.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The organization takes the view that diversity offers opportunities not only through breeding (<a href="Plant_breeding" title="Plant breeding">of plants</a> and <a href="Animal_breeding" title="Animal breeding">of animals</a>) but also by delivering many other benefits. Some are direct, such as the better nutrition and greater sustainability that come with locally adapted crops. Others are indirect, like the <a href="Ecosystem_services" class="mw-redirect" title="Ecosystem services">ecosystem services</a> delivered by healthy populations of <a href="Pollinator" title="Pollinator">pollinators</a>, <a href="Biological_control" class="mw-redirect" title="Biological control">biological control</a> agents, and <a href="Soil_microbes" class="mw-redirect" title="Soil microbes">soil microbes</a>. Agricultural biodiversity will also be absolutely essential to cope with the predicted impacts of climate change, not simply as a source of traits but as the underpinnings of more resilient farm ecosystems.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Governance">Governance</h2></div>

<p>Bioversity International is governed by a Board of Trustees, including one Trustee nominated by the host country (Italy) and one nominated by <a href="FAO" class="mw-redirect" title="FAO">FAO</a>. The Board also appoints the Director General who manages the operation of the various programs. The current Director General is Juan Lucas Restrepo.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>In 2014, Bioversity International marked 40 years of operations. Bioversity International was originally established by the <a href="CGIAR" title="CGIAR">CGIAR</a> as the <b>International Board for <a href="Plant_Genetic_Resources" class="mw-redirect" title="Plant Genetic Resources">Plant Genetic Resources</a></b> (<b>IBPGR</b>) in 1974. In October 1993, IBPGR became the <b>International Plant Genetic Resources Institute</b> (<b>IPGRI</b>) and in 1994 IPGRI began independent operation as one of the centers of the CGIAR. At the request of the CGIAR, in 1994 IPGRI took over the governance and administration of the <b>International Network for the Improvement of Banana and Plantain</b> (<b>INIBAP</b>). In 2006, IPGRI and INIBAP became a single organization and subsequently changed their operating name to Bioversity International. Bioversity International still maintains the world's largest banana <a href="Genomic_library" title="Genomic library">gene bank</a>, the Bioversity International <i>Musa</i> Germplasm Transit Centre, that is hosted at the <a href="KU_Leuven" title="KU Leuven">Katholieke Universiteit Leuven</a> (KU Leuven) in Leuven, Belgium, and manages <a href="ProMusa" title="ProMusa">ProMusa</a> - a platform that shares knowledge about <a href="Banana" title="Banana">bananas</a> and <a href="Cooking_banana" title="Cooking banana">plantains</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 2002, the <a href="Crop_Trust" title="Crop Trust">Global Crop Diversity Trust</a> was established by Bioversity International on behalf of the CGIAR and the <a href="Food_and_Agriculture_Organization" title="Food and Agriculture Organization">UN Food and Agriculture Organization</a>, through a Crop Diversity Endowment Fund.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Publications">Publications</h2></div>

<p>Bioversity International and its predecessors have published occasional papers under the title <i>Issues in Genetic Resources</i>. In 2017, the organization published <i>Mainstreaming Agrobiodiversity In Sustainable Food Systems - Scientific Foundations for an Agrobiodiversity Index</i>, a book that put the spotlight on the importance of agrobiodiversity as the foundation of our food supplies.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
