The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) is a specialized United Nations agency and an International Financial Institution that tackles hunger and poverty in rural communities. Founded in response to a global food crisis, since 1977, IFAD-supported projects have reached hundreds of millions of people around the world.
