One of the main objectives of GIPB is the establishment of a Knowledge Resource Center, including a shared information portal covering key areas such as training needs and opportunities, access to conventional and molecular breeding technologies and genetic resources, general information on breeding programmes and useful links.

The organization and consolidation of a mechanism for sharing information among partners can provide access to newly available information in a format that is accessible and organized to meet the needs of breeders in developing country programmes, as well as of national plant breeding capacity building efforts.

This includes guides to direct breeders, policy makers and institutional leaders to information on germplasm utilization, needs and opportunities available via the Internet, as well as methods of information sharing and communication. Such guides also include information on institutions that can contribute to one or more of the specific objectives of GIPB.
