Este articulo describe la sistematización de experiencias que tenian como idea inicial agregar valor a través del corte y limpieza del ajo, capacitando para ello a personas desocupadas. El proceso de sistematización se realizó según la Guía metodológica de Sistematización de experiencias de Desarrollo Rural elaborada por el Ministerio de Agricultura, Ganadería y Pesca (2011). La nueva propuesta resultó más adecuada a las condiciones de trabajo reales, por lo que los objetivos planteados se pudieron cumplir en un plazo más corto.
Este libro tiene como objetivos impulsar el fortalecimiento de los vínculos entre práctica científica, anclaje territorial y visión de futuro. Con ello, se recrea una cultura de trabajo que reconociéndose en la trayectoria institucional que cimentó el liderazgo mundial del INTA, incorpora las herramientas que garantizan el despliegue de nuestras mejores capacidades para comprender las complejidades de las coyunturas que nos desafían.
El objetivo de este trabajo ha sido caracterizar la evolución de la Extensión Rural de nuestro país en los últimos 30 años. Para ello, han sido analizadas las disertaciones, paneles, conferencias y trabajos presentados en las diferentes jornadas realizadas durante el periodo transcurrido desde 1983 hasta 2016.
This book discusses innovation problems and opportunities for family farming in the different regions of the American continent, as well as the role of hemispheric, regional and national agrifood research systems. Likewise, it provides a description of the main innovation actions and projects promoted by IICA, and the main success cases over recent years.
Capacity development interventions in support of agricultural innovation are more effective when based on systematic and participatory assessments of existing skills and capacity needs. Recognizing that, an instrument has been developed in the context of the Capacity Development for Agricultural Innovation Systems (CDAIS) project. It consists of a capacity scoring tool that allows assessing innovation capacities, identifying strengths and weaknesses and monitoring capacity changes over time. This paper describes the scoring tool and provides guidelines on how to apply it successfully.
This concept note has been developed within the context of the EU-funded CDAIS project, which is jointly implemented by AGRINATURA-EEIG and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to support the TAP Action Plan in eight pilot countries in Africa (Angola, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Rwanda), Asia (Bangladesh, Laos) and Central America (Guatemala, Honduras) .
This training manual was prepared under the EU-funded project Capacity Development for Agricultural Innovation Systems (CDAIS), a global partnership (Agrinatura, FAO and 8 pilot countries) that aims to strengthen the capacity of countries and key stakeholders to innovate in complex agricultural systems, thereby achieving improved rural livelihoods.
CDAIS is a global partnership that aims to strengthen the capacity of countries and key stakeholders to innovate in the context of complex agricultural systems, to improve rural livelihoods. The goal of the Capacity Development for Agricultural Innovation Systems (CDAIS) project is to promote innovation that meets the needs of small farmers, small and medium-sized agribusiness, and consumers.
The timeline tool is generally put to use when stakeholders embark upon the self-assessment phase of their innovation partnership. Stakeholders are asked to recall moments they feel were significant for the partnership, from its beginning to the present and to reflect upon how the partnership has evolved since it began.
The capacity-focused problem tree pinpoints a core capacity issue, along with its causes and effects. It helps clarify the precise capacity-development objectives that the intervention aims to achieve. The focus should be on functional capacity, but room should be left to acknowledge technical capacity issues too.
