About

The International Coconut Genetic Resources Network (COGENT) is a global research network organized by the International Plant Genetic Resources Institute (IPGRI) in 1992 with support from member countries, the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), partner institutions, donor agencies, and by regional and international development organizations.

The recent change to international status of the former Asia-Pacific Coconut Community to become the International Coconut Community (ICC) allows the ICC to become the new host for COGENT (September 2019)
