Global agricultural research and innovation community pledges action for sustainable development [15.04.16]
International representatives from key sectors in agri-food research and innovation have pledged to ‘leave no one behind’, by committing to create more opportunities for rural women and youth, to equip tomorrow’s farmers and researchers with the skills they need, and to push for more investment so rural communities can grow and flourish. These were just some of the commitments that came out of the Global Event of the Third Global Conference on Agricultural Development (GCARD3) that finished in Johannesburg on Friday (subs: 8.4.16).
