      Findings of the International Workshop
  

  

     
Assessing
    the Impact of Agricultural Research

    on Poverty Alleviation

  

  

    

       
   

      In September last year, a distinguished group of about 175 economists, researchers, and
      development specialists gathered at San José, Costa Rica, to conduct a rigorous
      examination of the impact of agricultural research on poverty alleviation.

       
The event was organized by CIAT under joint sponsorship with the
      Center for Research and Higher Education (CATIE) and the Inter-American Institute for
      Cooperation in Agriculture (IICA). It provided a forum for more than 80 scientists to
      share their results, summarizing numerous case studies of research that has made a
      difference in the lives of the poor. This Web site provides a summary of the
      workshop’s findings, together with the full text of most of the papers presented as
      well as background information on the event.
