The Finnish Research Network on Organic Agri-Food Systems (ReNOAF) is a virtual forum where researchers can discuss and through which networking with other researchers is easier, both domestically and to foreign countries.

The main activities are field of research -related theme groups and email list, which assemble research customers, researchers and other interest groups. The activity is voluntary and based on the actors' personal interest.

The Eco Studies Project administered by the University of Helsinki Mikkeli Institute for Rural Research and Training has participated in the implementation of The ReNOAF Internet pages. The project is funded by the State Provincial Office of East Finland and the European Social Fund (ESF).
