The capacity of existing monitoring and decision making tools in generating evidence about the performance of R4D with multi-stakeholder processes, such as innovation platforms (IPs), public private partnerships (PPP), participatory value chain management (PVCM) is very limited. Results of these tools are either contextual and qualitative such as case studies that can not be used by other R4D interventions or quantitative i.e. impact assessments that do not inform what works in R4D.
Este poster describe el "Programa Alianza Cambio Andino", sus metas, tiempo de duración, la estrategia empleada, como son realizadas las metodologías participativas en los cuatro países y la contribuición esperada
Este documento describe brevemente que los desafíos actuales de pobreza, desnutrición, cambio climático, degradación de suelos y pérdida de biodiversidad requieren nuevas soluciones, innovaciones y alianzas más sólidas que puedan tener un mayor impacto. Para responder a estos desafíos, y partiendo de sus mandatos complementarios y su larga colaboración, en 2018, Bioversity International y el CIAT se comprometieron a unir fuerzas y formar una Alianza.
The availability of an efficient PRRS virus monitoring information system for a large scale project remains a major issue. The purpose of this paper is to present the system developed by CDPQ (Quebec Swine Development Center) to support Quebec’s province-wide PRRS monitoring effort (3000 sites).
Digital platform enhances genetic progress in community-based sheep and goat breeding programs in Ethiopia:
- Up-to-date information on estimated breeding values and animal rankings is directly channeled to breeder organizations and used for selection decisions.
- The digital platform motivated use of more complicated evaluation models which improve accuracy of breeding values considerably.
- When upscaled, this will help create a permanent multi-country source of information.
Under the REGATTA Initiative (Regional Portal for Technology Transfer and Action against Climate Change in Latin America and Caribbean) this project seeks to develop actions towards vulnerability and adaptation to climate change assessment in agriculture and water resources in the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador and Peru.
