     <description>The Young Professionals Platform on Agricultural Research for Development (YPARD) and the Youth Organizations related to Agricultural Research for Development (ARD) in the world

Study aim
The study aims at having the most complete picture as possible of the Youth Organizations acting all over the world in a domain linked to ARD. The organizations could be local, regional or international and acting at various level. The organizations could have various type of Youth members, having any role in NGOs, Farmers Organizations, Governmental Organizations, International and Local Research Centres, and have the most various reach, modus operandi, outputs, visibility, etc. The organizations could be reached through their website, but the study aims at reporting also the existence of organizations that may be less known or less visible because they do not have a website.

On the basis of the identified Youth Organizations, the second aim of the study is to identify and analyse the existing commonalities between YPARD and these Youth Organizations and to clearly identify the added-value of YPARD

Interested individuals/organizations contact coordinationunit@ypard.org or ypard.coordinationunit@googlemail.com

     <title>YPARD grants: New local and regional initiatives </title>
     <description>How can we become a local/regional initiative under the YPARD umbrella?
You may join forces with other individuals and/or organisations in your country or region who would like to set up an initiative that brings together young professionals (YPs) to discuss, debate and act on key issues revolving Agricultural Research for Development (ARD). The group of individuals or organisations that seeks to institutionalise this way of interacting should send a concept note or proposal to the YPARD Coordination Unit. Alternatively, you may already be engaged in a programme dealing with the above mentioned issues. In that case, you can present your programme to the YPARD Coordination Unit. (For both cases, see below: What is the procedure for setting up a local/regional initiative?).
The Coordination Unit will communicate with you about your proposal and, if necessary, help you prepare it for submission to appointed members of the YPARD Steering Committee (SC), which will make the final decision about inclusion in YPARD based on the criteria outlined below. The Coordination Unit will ask the proposing group to prepare a summary of how their proposal meets these criteria.</description>
