This brochure presents the five-year TAP-AIS project (2019-2024) funded by the European Union under the DeSIRA Initiative and implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. The project has the main objective to strengthen capacities to innovate in national agricultural innovation systems (AIS) in the context of climate-relevant, productive, and sustainable transformation of agriculture and food systems in Africa, Latin America, Asia and the Pacific.
Le projet "Renforcer les capacités des systèmes d'innovation agricole: application et adaptation de l’approche de la plateforme d'agriculture tropicale (TAP-AIS)" vise à stimuler l'innovation pour la transformation des systèmes agricoles et alimentaires des pays partenaires en vue de mieux résister aux effets du changement climatique. Il intéresse ainsi le public technique ou pas, les jeunes et les media.
Dans de nombreux pays, les décideurs ont besoin d'informations pertinentes sur les systèmes d'innovation agricole (SIA) pour guider la formulation des stratégies et des instruments politiques de soutien à l'innovation.
The “E-learning methodologies” guide aims to support professionals involved in the design and development of e-learning projects and products. The guide reviews the basic concepts of e-learning with a focus on adult learning, and introduces the various activities and roles involved in an e-learning project. The guide covers methodologies and tips for creating interactive content and for facilitating online learning, as well as some of the technologies used to create and deliver e-learning.
This Module is the third in a series of four that address capacity development competencies in FAO. It is intended to enhance FAO’s practices in designing, developing, delivering and evaluating its activities in support of learning in Member Countries, while ensuring that learning leads to sustainable capacity development.
This book represents the proceedings of the FAO international technical conference dedicated to Agricultural Biotechnologies in Developing Countries (ABDC-10) that took place in Guadalajara, Mexico on 1-4 March 2010. A major objective of the conference was to take stock of the application of biotechnologies across the different food and agricultural sectors in developing countries, in order to learn from the past and to identify options for the future to face the challenges of food insecurity, climate change and natural resource degradation.
This brochure presents the Programme on Bridging the Rural Digital Divide, that begun in 2003 under the implementation of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The programme highlighted innovative approaches to knowledge exchange that were taking advantage of new (at that time) digital technologies, and that were based on synergies between information management and communication for development. At the time this was referred to as "information and communication for development"(ICD).
Cette brochure présente un programme stratégique intitulé «Combler le fossé numérique en milieu rural», mis en œuvre en 2003 pour l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture (FAO). Le programme exposait des approches novatrices pour le partage des connaissances qui tiraient partie des nouvelles technologies numériques (de l’époque) et qui s’appuyaient sur des synergies entre la gestion de l’information et la communication pour le développement. A l'époque cela était appelé «information et communication pour le développement" (ICD).
Este folleto presenta el Programa estratégico para “Reducir la Brecha Digital en el Medio Rural”, implementado en 2003 por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Alimentación y la Agricultura (FAO). El programa destacó enfoques novedosos para el intercambio de información, que aprovechaban de nuevas (en ese tiempo) tecnologías digitales, y se basaban en sinergias entre la gestión de información y la comunicación para el desarrollo. En ese momento este proceso se llamaba "Información y Comunicación para el Desarrollo" (ICD).
This tool helps the design of comprehensive capacity development interventions aimed at strengthening mainly functional capacities. The purpose of this tool is to provide an overview of the different options in terms of capacity development modalities that an innovation partnership can consider while developing the action plan.
