This paper, presented at the 12th European IFSA Symposium (Workshop: "Generating spaces for innovation in agricultural and rural development") in 2016, aims to summarise the main features of the AgriSpin project. The project is being financed by the Horizon 2020 research program of the European Commission aiming at contributing to system-oriented innovation research in agriculture and as complementary to the policy instrument EIP AGRI. The idea behind EIP AGRI is that innovation emerges from interaction between stakeholders.
Depuis quelques années, en Afrique de l’Ouest, les institutions régionales et leurs bailleurs de fonds reconnaissent aux systèmes de stockage alimentaire de proximité un rôle à jouer dans la sécurité alimentaire et dans la régulation des marchés. L’appui aux stocks de proximité, considérés comme la première ligne de défense en cas de crise alimentaire, est explicitement retenu dans la stratégie de stockage de la CEDEAO, de même que le renforcement des capacités de collecte, de stockage et de mise en marché des organisations de producteurs dans une perspective de régulation du marché.
In the 90’s first steps were taken in Cuba to strengthen family farming. A participatory seeds breeding, multiplication and diffusion project started, a challenge to Cuban scientists, not used to involve farmers in the decision making process and recognizing them as equal partners. This project further evolved to become the Local Agricultural Innovation Programme, Spanish acronym PIAL (Programa de Innovación Agropecuaria Local).
This evaluation report discusses the findings, conclusions and recommendations on the project “Strengthening Community Resilience to Change: Combining Local Innovative Capacity with Scientific Research (CLIC-SR)” under the umbrella of the network Promoting Local Innovation in ecologically oriented agriculture and NRM (PROLINNOVA). This project was implemented in four Eastern African countries, namely Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.
