Background
In May 2015, a consortium led by the University of Florida received a five-year, $13.7 million award from the U.S. Agency for International Development to work on a wide array of research programs designed to build the capacity of Haitians to improve the country's agricultural sector.
What
The Feed the Future Haiti AREA project is hosting an International Conference on Agricultural Research and Innovation in Haiti. After five years, it's time for AREA researchers and AREA-sponsored Haitian graduates from U.S. universities to showcase their work on critical aspects of Haiti agriculture. The conference also is a forum to bring researchers, AREA partners and other potential collaborators together to identify opportunities for future research and/or extension activities.
When
March 10-11, 2020
Where
The Karibe Conference Center in Pétionville, Haiti.
Abstracts
We solicited abstracts of research papers and presentations from Haitian researchers, graduates of AREA's master of science program and AREA project partners. The deadline has passed; more info and instructions.
