Mission

InfoSys+ aims at improving the access to web resources in the areas of agriculture, environment, forestry, fisheries, socio-economics, rural-transformation and many others, devoted towards development. It also aims at creating an information and communication platform, as service for a multitude of institutions and parties all over the world involved in scientific development cooperation.
 

Background

InfoSys+ was initiated by the European Initiative for Agricultural Research for Development (EIARD) which serves as a mechanism that enables better coherence between relevant policies in ARD within the European Member States (incl. Norway, Switzerland).
CORAF/WECARD was the first subregional organisation that invested into the further devlopment of the system that led to the creation of the CORAF/WECARD subregional protal and national portals for the countries in West Africa.
The development of the regional portals for the other African subregions (ASARECA, SADC and Nother Africa) and the development of the African protal was realised in collaboration with FARA.
