Young Researchers Seminar : 25th-30th March 2010 Montpellier, France
THE DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS IS EXTENDED UNTIL 30th SEPTEMBER 2009


The French Initiative for International Agricultural Research (FI4IAR: a joint venture of Inra and Cirad) in collaboration with Agropolis Fondation and with the support of the Young Professionals’ Platform for Agricultural Research for Development (YPARD) is organizing its first biennial seminar for young researchers working in developed and developing countries from the 25th-30th March 2010. 

Envisioned to be a regular event, the first of a series of Young Researchers Seminar (YRS) will take place just before and overlap with the Global Conference on Agricultural Research for Development (GCARD), scheduled for 28 March – 01 April 2010. 

Entitled “Exploring Agricultural Research for the future: a dialogue between young researchers from the South and the North”, the event will provide an opportunity for doctoral and post doctoral students to dialogue and to establish links between young researchers from the North and the South. This seminar will gather some 40 young researchers who will reflect on how innovation and integration are factored into their respective research work, what are the obstacles faced, what are the institutional and organizational prerequisites, etc.
