AARINENA was established to strengthen cooperation among national, regional and international agricultural research institutions and centers to ultimately support the agricultural sector in its member countries.

This article starts by describing the evolution of innovation in agricultural research and cooperation for development, including an historical overview of agricultural research for development from green revolution to the re-discover of traditional knowledge. Then the authors analyze participation in innovation processes and make a comparison of innovation systems and platforms targeting the agri-food sector in developing countries. A particular focus is reserved to the European regional networks and to the experience of the USAID Middle East Water and Livelihoods Initiative.
En Europe, depuis trois décennies, la prise en compte des enjeux environnementaux dans les politiques agricoles se traduit, en partie, par la conception de Mesures agrienvironnementales (MAE), visant à promouvoir le changement de pratiques. En France, ces mesures ont été mobilisées dans différents modèles de contrats avec les agriculteurs, passant d’un paradigme basé sur la subvention de la multifonctionnalité d’une exploitation agricole à une compensation des surcoûts liés à l’adoption de nouvelles pratiques plus vertueuses au niveau des parcelles.
Les conséquences sur les territoires des changements climatiques d’origine anthropique sont variables dans leurs expressions comme dans leurs effets, et les territoires sont inégaux face à ces variations climatiques en termes d’exposition aux effets (fonction de facteurs physiques, sociaux, économiques, culturels, politiques, etc.) comme en termes de capacité de réponse (capacité d’appréhension, d’anticipation, de réparation, etc.).
