Este trabajo describe la metodología e implementación de la Estrategia Comunicacional (EC) del proyecto “Aportes para el crecimiento, la equidad y la sustentabilidad del territorio diversificado de los partidos costeros de San Pedro y Baradero”, basado en el marco de la investigación participativa y transdisciplinar propia de la metaperspectiva de la Comunicación Estratégica (CE) de la Escuela de Rosario.
Este libro se propone mostrar el modo en que la construcción de sentido en torno al concepto de interdisciplina en equipos de trabajo, es eje de un proceso de comunicación que acompaña cambios organizacionales. Dichos cambios no son estructurales sino que intervienen en las relaciones entre los sectores de investigación y extensión, las dos ramas fundamentales del Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA), organismo nacional dedicado a la generación y transferencia de tecnología.
Chickpea is an important crop in Ethiopia, but yields and grain quality remain poor. To help unlock the full potential, CDAIS has supported the value chain around the northern city of Gondar since 2016, in partnership with the N2Africa project. As a result of new platforms, experience sharing and developing a combination of new organisational skills and behavioural change, research and extension support services stopped telling and started listening, and joined forces in innovating together with farmers.
“I see mindset shifts being promoted by CDAIS says Gemechu Nemie, director of the Ethiopian Animal Feed Industry Association (EAFIA) and a key member of the livestock feed safety and quality innovation niche. And this is the sort of change that the CDAIS project is beginning to engender, as partners start to implement approaches that better promote innovation in agriculture, by inspiring small and simple personal revolutions… Ethiopia is one of eight CDAIS pilot countries, and within each, several ‘niches’ or ‘innovation partnerships’ have been selected.
Michael Kügler, from the Brussels Office of the EU-Platform of Chambers of Agriculture, presented the EU-Innovation Partnership (EIP),designed to support knowledge transfer, coop-eration, and collective investment, at the 3rd GFRAS Annual Meeting, "The Role of Rural Advisory Services in Agricultural Innovation Systems", 26-28 September 2012, Philippines. He referred to the need to pursue innovation in a cross-sectorial approach, interlinking existing initiatives, facilitating communication, providing value added through networking, and achieving syner-gies.
This document sets out how EU Research and Innovation (R&I) policy contributes to the major global challenge of ensuring food and nutrition security (FNS). It is a first step in the further development of a more coherent approach to European R&I which aims at mobilising resources and stakeholders to set out aligned R&I agendas in response to recent international political drivers such as the Sustainable Development Goals and the COP 21 climate commitments.
This Guide to Evaluating Rural Extension has been developed by the Global Forum for Rural Advisory Services (GFRAS). The purpose is to support those involved in extension evaluation to choose how to conduct more comprehensive, rigorous, credible and useful evaluations. The Guide supports readers to understand different types of evaluation, to make decisions on what is most appropriate for their circumstances, and to access further sources of theoretical and practical information.
Ethiopia is a home for diverse livestock including small ruminants and has the largest population of livestock in Africa. Livestock is kept for export earnings, food security, economic growth, poverty reduction and employment opportunities. Small ruminants are an important resource for livelihood and food security improvement serving as sources of food, income, risk mitigation, property security, monetary saving, investment, and providing other social and cultural benefits.
En 2011, la Plateforme pour un partenariat Afrique-Europe dans le domaine de la recherche agricole pour le développement (Platform for African European Partnership on Agricultural Research for Development, PAEPARD) a lancé le processus guidé par les utilisateurs (PGU) afin de mieux intégrer leurs besoins dans un partenariat multiacteurs pour la recherche et l’innovation (R&I).
Projet pilote, l’initiative Adaptation Learning Program (ALP) ou Programme d’Apprentissage sur l’Adaptation au Changement Climatique, est mis en œuvre pour une durée de cinq ans (2010-2014) à l’échelle de quatre pays subsahariens : Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique et Niger. Cette phase est conçue et mise en œuvre par Care et ses partenaires dans le but de « Renforcer la capacité des ménages vulnérables en Afrique sub-saharienne à s’adapter à la variabilité et au changement climatique à travers une approche d’adaptation à base communautaire (ABC) ».
