Resumen
Descripción
This note discusses about six farmer
innovators from Ethiopia that took part in the recent
international workshop on Promoting Local Innovation
(PROLINNOVA), which was held in March 2004 at the Furra
Institute of Development Studies in Yirgalem, Southern
Ethiopia. Over 60 participants from Africa, Asia and Europe
took part. They discussed experiences in building
multi-stakeholder partnerships to promote participatory
research and development that starts with recognizing the
dynamics of indigenous knowledge. They visited farmer
researchers and innovators in Southern Ethiopia and listened
to the oral presentations of the farmers who came from more
distant parts of the country.
