Through dialogue and the sharing of experiences, participants will explore how agricultural research, science and technology, and food policy initiatives can better improve the lives and livelihoods of poor people, and launch new initiatives that bring the benefits of modern science quicker and faster to poor farmers.
Recent AGMs were held in China, Washington, Morocco, Mexico, Kenya and the Philippines. The meeting and associated events will offer excellent opportunities to interact with world-class scientists and to learn how new knowledge – developed and applied within a public goods framework – is reducing poverty, hunger and environmental degradation.
