The First Global Agro Industries Forum (GAIF) met in April, 2008 at:

The correct answer is (a) Geneva.

The First Global Agro Industries Forum (GAIF) was held in Geneva, Switzerland from 22-24 April 2008. The forum was organized by the International Trade Centre (ITC) and the World Food Programme (WFP). The theme of the forum was “Sustainable Agriculture for Food Security and Poverty Reduction”.

The forum brought together over 500 participants from governments, international organizations, the private sector, and civil society. The participants discussed the challenges and opportunities for sustainable agriculture and food security. They also made recommendations for action to address these challenges.

The GAIF was a successful event that helped to raise awareness of the importance of sustainable agriculture for food security and poverty reduction. The forum also provided a platform for stakeholders to share ideas and experiences, and to develop partnerships to address these challenges.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • (b) Doha is the capital of Qatar. The Doha Round of World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations was launched in Doha in November 2001.
  • (c) New York is the capital of the United States. The United Nations headquarters is located in New York.
  • (d) New Delhi is the capital of India. The GAIF was held in Geneva, Switzerland, not New Delhi.
