ICARRD has also succeeded in placing the debate about rural development and agrarian reform on the pages of many leading international media.

Your ideas and inputs, as well as those of many of the specialists and representatives from governments and civil society present in Porto Alegre travelled a long way to the front pages of newspapers in Washington, Beijing, Johannesburg, Islamabad or Madrid.
