A five-day Training of Trainers (ToT) workshop was conducted from 27–31 October 2025 in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia, focusing on strengthening the technical capacity and facilitation skills of experts working along the soybean and sunflower value chains. The workshop aimed to enhance participants’ understanding of good agricultural practices, quality management, postharvest handling, gender and social inclusion, regenerative and climate-smart agriculture, and the use of digital tools to improve oilseed productivity and sustainability. A total of 39 participants drawn from Zenal Department of Agriculture, research institutions, cooperatives and union organizations took part in the training. The training combined presentations, group discussions, and practical demonstrations, using a participatory approach to ensure active engagement and experience sharing. By the end of the training, participants developed action plans to cascade the knowledge and skills gained to benefit extension agents and farmers within their respective institutions and project areas.
