The Borlaug Global Rust Initiative (BGRI) is an international community of thousands of hunger fighters from hundreds of institutions working together to:

reduce the world’s vulnerability to threats to wheat, particularly from disease and climate change;
enhance world productivity to withstand global threats to wheat security.
facilitate sustainable international partnerships to contain these threats;
engage with farmers for a wheat-secure world;
train the next generation of hunger fighters.

The BGRI was initiated by Norman E. Borlaug in 2005. Founding institutions were ICAR, ICARDA, CIMMYT, UN-FAO and Cornell University.
