Última Evaluation, Learning and Change in Research and Development Organizations: Concepts, Experiences, and Implications for the CGIAR AgEcon Horton, Douglas; Galleno, Viviana; Mackay, Ronald. 2nd edition Tipo: Working or Discussion Paper Palavras-chave: Learning; Evaluation; Change; ISNAR; Research; CGIAR; Development; Agricultural and Food Policy; Food Security and Poverty; Research and Development/Tech Change/Emerging Technologies. Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/52540 Utilization-focused evaluation for agricultural innovation AgEcon Patton, Michael Quinn; Horton, Douglas. Utilization-focused evaluation (UFE) is based on the principle that an evaluation should be judged by its utility. So no matter how technically sound and methodologically elegant, an evaluation is not truly a good evaluation unless the findings are used. UFE is a framework for enhancing the likelihood that evaluation findings will be used and lessons will be learnt from the evaluation process. This Brief, based on the book Utilization-focused evaluation, introduces this approach to evaluation, outlines key steps in the evaluation process, identifies some of the main benefits of UFE, and provides two examples of UFE in the context of programmes aimed at promoting agricultural innovation.

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/52533 Institutional Learning and Change: An initiative to promote greater impact through agricultural research for poverty alleviation AgEcon Watts, Jamie; Horton, Douglas. The ILAC Initiative consists of an evolving community of individuals committed to increasing the contributions of agricultural research to sustainable poverty reduction around the world. ILAC promotes research, methodology development and capacity development to increase understanding of agricultural change processes and increase the effectiveness of interventions to stimulate pro-poor innovation. This paper presents a broad overview of ILAC, including its background, origins and evolution, objectives and activities. It also presents the initiative’s central hypothesis and a set of guiding questions. Theoretical frameworks that show promise for increasing understanding of issues related to capacities to learn, facilitate innovation, and contribute to...

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/52536 Collective Action for Innovation and Small Farmer Market Access: The Papa Andina Experience AgEcon Devaux, Andre; Velasco, Claudio; Lopez, Gaston; Bernet, Thomas; Ordinola, Miguel; Pico, Hernan; Thiele, Graham; Horton, Douglas. The Andean highlands are home to some of the poorest rural households in South America. Native potato varieties and local knowledge for their cultivation and use are unique resources possessed by farmers in these areas. As the forces of globalization and market integration penetrate the Andes, they present both challenges and opportunities for farmers there. This paper reports on how the Papa Andina Regional Initiative is promoting the use of collective action to reduce poverty in the Andes, by developing market niches and adding value to potatoes, particularly the native potatoes grown by poor farmers. Since 1998, Papa Andina has worked with partners in Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru to stimulate pro-poor innovation within market chains for potato-based...
