The International Conference on Agrarian Reform and Rural Development (ICARRD) in Porto Alegre was organized jointly by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Government of Brazil to explore new development opportunities to revitalize rural communities worldwide.

During the four days of the conference (7-10 March 2006), participants from more than 100 countries reviewed different experiences of agrarian reform around the world, analyzing processes, impacts, mechanisms and participation schemes, and made proposals for future action.
