Swiss Forum on Rural Advisory Services (SFRAS)
SFRAS is an informal group of experts from Swiss development, research, education and private sector organisations, who are involved in Rural Advisory Services (RAS) in developing countries.
Note: The SFRAS held its concluding meeting on 30 May 2025. This page serves as an archive providing access to the meeting documents of the last five years.
Objectives
- exchange and learn from each other, particularly on good practices and tools in RAS;
- have space for networking among members of different institutions (public, private, NGOs);
- coordinate advocacy and lobbying on RAS in order to keep it high on the agenda in international cooperation.
Meetings
The thematic meetings were hosted in rotation by different organisations and were open to representatives of organisations and to individuals interested and engaged in RAS.
