YPARD Thank you to its founding members

As we start 2012, YPARD will say thank you and goodbye to the last of the founding YPARD members who comes to the end of her term as YPARD steering committee member in January 2012. 

 

The official launch of YPARD occurred in November 2006 at the Global Forum for Agricultural Research (GFAR) conference in New Delhi, where the first SC members were officially confirmed: Andres Tschannen, Balasubramanian Ramani (Coordinator), Enrico Baccioni, Martine Ngobo, Kristine Roing, Oliver Oliveros, Alessandra Giuliani, Markus Buerli, Mariana Wongtchowski and Ariga Grigoryan.

Between 2006 and 2011 there has been a gradual renewal of the SC members. As of January 2012, YPARD will miss the strategic guidance and experience of the ‘original’ SC members, but will move ahead with a new young committed team, thanks to the strong base setup by committed individuals, for the benefit of YPARD members and youth in ARD.
