This brief discusses the benefits of innovation platforms in dealing with natural resource management issues.
This brief deals with the importance of power and representation within in innovation platforms. The brief is part of the series of ‘practice briefs’ intended to help guide agricultural research practitioners who seek to support and implement innovation platforms.
Four ways of achieving impact with innovation platforms are discussed in this brief.
Four types of scaling are discussed in this brief. The first two focus on ways individual technologies or interventions are taken to scale through platforms. The third is when a platform adjusts to address different scales.
Innovation platforms are widely used in agricultural research to connect different stakeholders to achieve common goals.
Multi-stakeholder or innovation platforms are increasingly seen as a promising vehicle for agricultural innovation and development.
This paper (Part I) present a case study of work conducted by the International Centre for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) to adapt network mapping techniques to a rural and developing country context.
This paper uses household and key informant survey data from Ethiopia to: (1) understand the organizational structures that influence change in dairy production systems; (2) explore how local-level innovation system networks are functioning in the smallholder dairy production and (3) identify int
Research, extension, and advisory services are some of the most knowledge-intensive elements of agricultural innovation systems. They are also among the heaviest users of information communication technologies (ICTs).
The workshop summarized in this report was proposed by the Africa Research in Sustainable Intensification for the Next Generation (Africa RISING) project and CG’s livestock and fish program, in response to a perceived need to strengthen the capacity of local partners and staff (including agricult
