How is IPC funded?
Approximately half of IPC’s funding comes to it in the form of annual contributions by its structural members. Members contribute at the Sustaining ($25,000), Affiliate ($25,000-$10,000), and Associate ($10,000-$5,000) levels. Structural members are leading businesses, membership associations, and investment banks in agriculture and food production. IPC is also supported by project-specific funding from governments and foundations. Recent contributors included the US Department of Agriculture, the United Nations Foundation, the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. In addition to its annual funding, IPC receives financial and in-kind support for its activities.
