| dc.description | Farmer Field Schools (FFS) have been implemented in over 90 countries since they started in a FAO programme in Asia more than 25 years ago. The FFSs approach, using experiential group learning process that examines and integrates scientific and indigenous knowledge to a local context, enhances food security and sustainable agricultural development of vulnerable communities. Farmer Field Schools have proven to contribute to individual, household and community empowerment that improve livelihoods. Demand is growing for scale up FFS programmes from a wide range of stakeholders. In 2017, FAO began developing the Global FFS Platform to strengthen FS quality by connecting the extensive network of FFS practitioners worldwide. The Platform facilitates the exchange of knowledge, expertise and information on FFS. It documents, improves the visibility of achievements and promotes a stronger collaboration among committed stakeholders. This brochure is meant to describe the Platform, attract people interested in learning more about FFS and FFS practitioners and experts that can join the platform as members. | |
