Call for Proposals
GAFSP allocates funds for public and, as of 2021, producer organization-led projects based on competitive, open, calls for proposals that have clear, transparent guidelines set forth by the GAFSP Steering Committee. Successful proposals are selected based on recommendations of an independent review conducted by global agriculture experts (Technical Advisory Committee) and then selected through a competitive process by the Steering Committee.
