La extensión es el proceso de intervención de carácter educativo y transformador, cuyo objetivo es el desarrollo económico y social de las familias rurales, a través de servicios de asistencia técnica, intercambio de tecnología, desarrollo de capacidades y capacitación. Este documento muestra como lograr estos servicios.
Approved by TAP partners, the TAP Work Plan 2016 describes the activities to be carried out in 2016 to achieve TAP's objective of promoting more coherent and effective capacity development interventions for agricultural innovation.
La presentación da una definición de agricultura familiar y sus características esenciales conjuntamente con una definición de extensionismo.
