GFAR - Global Forum on Agricultural Research
The Global Forum on Agricultural Research (GFAR) is a
stakeholder-led initiative that serves as a neutral forum for discussion and action on critical issues related to agricultural research for development (ARD). GFAR was formally established in 1996 by an agreement among stakeholders of agricultural research, as an initiative to promote cost-effective partnerships and strategic alliances in agricultural research and innovation.

The Global Forum decided to adopt a new more dynamic approach to circulating relevant ARD news among its stakeholders.
Replacing the quarterly newsletter, the Forum is now regularly sending out the GFAR e-news.
The e-news are circulated through email to the whole mailing list of the Global Forum. They are sent at short intervals, at least three times a week.
