On 21 November CFIA is involved in organizing a seminar session on Grassroots Innovation, together with the International Institute of Social Studies (ISS) and Partos, which is the Dutch membership body for organisations working in international development. Former Prince Claus Chairholder Saradindu Bhaduri will share his knowledge on the matter, as well as CFIA director Peter Knorringa.
