GFAR Partner IAAS was founded in 1957 and started with only 8 member countries. In 60 years, it became an association with over 40 member countries and about 10.000 students as members!

But still, their vision stays the same: To promote the Exchange of Experience, Knowledge and Ideas and to improve the mutual Understanding between Students in the field of Agricultural and Related Sciences all over the World!

After all those years,  IAAS is still successful in keeping a family feeling among its members and we are proud to be part of this association!

On the 21st of March 2017 they celebrated the 60th anniversary with IAAS members all over the World!
