The Food & Business Applied Research Fund (ARF) addresses the knowledge and research needs of partners in the bilateral food security programmes of the 15 Dutch development cooperation partner countries.

It operates on the basis of a continuous call for proposals where local partners from the private sector, civil society and government join with knowledge and research institutions.
