This data paper describes the content of 16 datasets collected under the International Winter Wheat Improvement Program (IWWIP), an alliance between Turkey-CIMMYT-ICARDA (TCI), during the 2015–2016, 2016–2017, 2017–2018 and 2018–2019 seasons. Data was collected from the Facultative and Winter Wheat Observation Nursery (FAWWON) and the International Winter Wheat Yield Trials (IWWYT) conducted under semi-arid and irrigated conditions across different countries. Data on all nurseries was collected during the growing season by IWWIP's team and cooperators in their local environments. It was compiled at the end of the wheat season by IWWIP's team. Multi-locational data can be used to select advanced lines that fit to collaborators’ growing environment. The selected germplasm can either be used as a parent in their breeding programs or be released as a variety in their country.
