Expert Working Groups

Expert Working Groups (EWGs) are established where there would be benefit from bringing together experts with a focus on a topic of relevance to the Wheat Initiative’s aims and objectives. The Wheat Initiative provides EWGs with a platform for discussion, information sharing and interaction to identify and address specific research and organisational challenges.

EWGs have clear objectives that could include (but are not limited to) specific activities such as contributing to the development and implementation of the Wheat Initiative Strategic Research Agenda, delivering position papers, stimulating and facilitating knowledge sharing within a scientific community or addressing a particular challenge through a research programme. The minimum output is an annual report for dissemination to the Wheat Initiative Committees and the wheat research community through the Wheat Initiative website.
