Descripción
The Government of South Africa identified Human Resource Development as a strategic priority for the country. In response, the Department of Agriculture (DOA)launched a programme to develop a comprehensive national strategy for Agricultural Education and Training (AET). The AET strategic plan presented in this document represents the first effort to address AET holistically in a manner that focuses all role players around three strategic goals. 1- Develop and maintain an effective and well-c oordinated AET that is integrated at all levels and responds appropriately to South African Agriculture 2- Enhance equitable access and meaningful participation in AET for all South Africans 3- Ensure the application of effective quality assurance of AET at all levels This strategic plan builds on a twelve-month process involving participatory research and consultation with AET stakeholders and role players at provincial and national levels. The process was facilitated by the Food and Agricu lture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in collaboration with the South African national and provincial Departments of Agriculture.
