FAS Grant for International Agricultural Trade Research Consortium (IATRC) Support

FAS values the IATRC as a fruitful partnership between academics and other researchers in agricultural trade and trade policy on one hand and government trade policy practitioners on the other hand to better understand directions in trade policies themselves and their impacts on markets.

To ensure FAS objectives are met, we are requesting that the following tasks be performed:

– Provide FAS with a project plan for use for external peer review;

– Provide necessary office space, including storage for IATRC materials, a computer, email and internet access for personnel assigned to the project;

– Assign professional personnel as needed to carry out the agreed upon cooperative and administrative work;

– Conduct conference planning and meeting management for the IATRC General Meetings and for IATRC Symposia.
