Abstract
Evidence from recent debates and empirical cases suggests the need for a more broadly conceived notion of extension – referred to here as extension-plus. However in order to operationalise this vision of extension-plus, it is not only necessary to understand the new scope of the extension task, but also to understand ways of stimulating a diversity of extension innovations that respond adaptively to local and evolving circumstances. This policy brief outlines both the scope of extension-plus and the value of learning-based approaches to developing extension innovations. It also discusses the challenges for extension reform of promoting a learning-based approach in public bodies where such processes of change clash with prevailing organisational cultures.
