GFAiR - The Global Forum on Agricultural Research and Innovation
GFAiR was jointly established by FAO, IFAD, The World Bank and CGIAR and is the only multi-stakeholder global forum in which public, private and civil actors, across all aspects of the generation, access, transformation and use of agri-food knowledge, come together through their own representative mechanisms, to collectively shape the future of agriculture and realize desired SDG impacts.
GFAiR is an open forum and a movement for change. Together, we are working to make research and innovation in agriculture and food more effective, responsive and equitable, towards achieving Sustainable Development.
