Project code: 81122945
Contract period: 01.04.2010 - 31.03.2012
Budget: 60,000 Euro
Purpose of research: Networks and research co-ordination

Purpose: To enhance adaptation to climate variability through effective knowledge sharing processes in vulnerable ecosystems of the arid and semi arid lands. This refers to facilitated exchange of know-how and experiences between rural people, and not to diverse approaches where specialist farmers (promoters, farmer extensionists etc.) take on the function of the extensionist (ASALs) of Kenya. This involves development and adaptation of methods that render mutual learning between livestock keepers and scientist more effective.
