SALSA est un projet Horizon 2020 de l'UE qui visait à évaluer le rôle actuel et futur des petites exploitations agricoles et des petites entreprises alimentaires associées (fournisseurs, transformateurs, distributeurs) dans la réalisation d'une sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle (SNA) durable. SALSA a étudié de petites exploitations dans 30 régions de référence dans 20 pays : 25 régions (au niveau administratif dit NUTS3) en Europe et 5 régions en Afrique.
SALSA es un proyecto Horizonte 2020 de la UE que se propuso evaluar el papel actual y futuro de las pequeñas explotaciones y las pequeñas empresas alimentarias relacionadas (proveedores, procesadores, distribuidores) para lograr una Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional (SAN) sostenible. SALSA estudió pequeñas explotaciones en 30 regiones de referencia en 20 países: 25 regiones (en el llamado nivel administrativo NUTS3) en Europa y 5 regiones en África.
Les petites exploitations agricoles du nord de l’Europe côtoient certaines des exploitations les plus grandes – et dans certains cas, les plus industrialisées – de toute l’Europe.
The EU-funded Horizon 2020 “Small Farms, Small Food Businesses and Sustainable Food Security” (SALSA) project has brought together 16 partners, from European and African countries and the UN system, who have a unique blend of multidisciplinary expertise and experience from a wide range of geographical and socio-political realities.
SALSA has aimed to provide a better understanding of the current and potential contribution of small farms and food businesses to sustainable Food and Nutrition Security (FNS).
The contributions and dynamic interaction of thousands of stakeholders from all sectors have created the GCARD (Global Conference on Agricultural Research for Development) Roadmap, providing a clear path forward for all involved. The Roadmap highlights the urgent changes required in Agricultural Research for Development (AR4D) systems globally, to address worldwide goals of reducing hunger and poverty, creating opportunity for income growth while ensuring environmental sustainability and particularly meeting the needs of resource-poor farmers and consumer.
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.
The purpose of this sourcebook is to pull together into a single document a collection of common sense tips and recommendations based on actual practices and experience around the world.
The Outcome mapping factsheet provides a series of steps to gather information on the outcomes of the process initiated by capacity development for agricultural innovation. This tool provides an overview of the outcome mapping methodology used for planning and assessing projects/programmes oriented towards change and social transformation. A simplified version (three stages and 10 steps) is proposed, based on the original IDRC methodology and experiences from the application in the CDAIS project.
This document was prepared under the project Capacity Development for Agricultural Innovation Systems (CDAIS), a global partnership (Agrinatura, FAO and eight 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 uses a continuous learning cycle approach to support national agricultural innovation systems in eight countries in Africa, in Asia and Central America.
These guidelines are produced by FAO as part of the Capacity Development for Agricultural Innovation Systems Project (CDAIS). The objective of this document is provide practical guidelines to implement marketplace events to strengthen agricultural innovation. A marketplace is an event organized to facilitate matching of demand and supply and to promote learning, sharing and exchanging of information, knowledge and practical experience on specific topics.
