Organized by GFAR, the GCARD is more than just a Conference - it's a multi-year process of learning and continuous updating of the global agricultural research for development (AR4D) system. Our aim is to create new ways of working together to enhance the development value of research.

GCARD will strive to develop a new global agricultural research system, driven by tangible development outcomes and bringing together all those involved in agriculture research for development (AR4D). 

To stay informed about GCARD updates, please pre-register here.

We look forward to involving you all in this important process shaping the future of agriculture. If you would like to get involved in your region, please send an e-mail to GCARD2010@fao.org to learn whom to contact.
