The Global Research Alliance is noted for its global collaborative approach to research funding

A recent posting on ‘Investment in agriculture and access to markets will help to feed the world’ from the Poverty Matters Blog ahead of the G20 agriculture meeting mentions the Global Research Alliance as an excellent example of coordinating research resources.

“at the global level, new alliances are coming together to co-ordinate research funding and policy harmonisation.

The alliance’s goal is to improve the agricultural system’s ability to grow more food without increasing greenhouse gas emissions.”
