note: This guideline is collaborative output from the CGIAR Research Program
Dryland Systems, Eastern and Southern Africa. We believe that innovation
platforms (IPs) are a powerful vehicle for implementing and coordinating
systems research and for sharing lessons with the wider research for
development community. The guideline aims at handy information for
scientists of different disciplines to understand the IP concept, its advantages
and challenges, important principles for implementing and coordinating systems research in the drylands. It provides valuable information for research, development and other actors.We thank Nelson Mango, CIAT, and Joyce Njoloma, ICRAF, for
internal review of this document.
abstract: An agricultural innovation platform (IP) is a forum where a group of
actors with different backgrounds and interests, including women
and men farmers, extension, research, private sector, local and or
national decision-makers come together to diagnose challenges and
opportunities, and to find solutions in a particular situation...
