| This report provides information on the impact of CIMMYT training, based on a set of background interviews with center staff, reviews of relevant data and documents provided by CIMMYT, and two surveys: one of research leaders in trainees’ countries of origin and one of participants in CIMMYT courses on maize and wheat improvement, quality protein maize, soil-borne pathogens of cereals, and maize stress breeding during 2002-04. Evidence indicates that training provided by CIMMYT not only furnishes new knowledge and skills, but results in new ways of thinking about research and new research partnerships, is often shared within trainees’ home institutions, and changes the way the institutions work. The evidence in this study establishes the existence of... |

| To help integrated natural resource management (INRM) research "deliver the goods" for many of the world's poor over a large area and in a timely manner, the authors suggest a problem-solving approach that facilitates the scaling out of relevant agricultural practices. They propose seven ways to foster scaling out: (1) develop more attractive practices and technologies through participatory research (2) balance supply-driven approaches with resource user demands, (3) use feedback to redefine the research agenda, (4) encourage support groups and networks for information sharing, (5) facilitate negotiation among stakeholders, (6) inform policy change and institutional development, and (7) make sensible use of information management tools, including models... |

| Este trabalho busca estimar os impactos potenciais de algumas ações/serviços implementadas pelo Projeto AgroNordeste, no âmbito da ovinocaprinocultura na Região Nordeste e, em extensão, no Brasil. Para tanto, e se baseia na proposta piloto elaborada por um grupo de pesquisadores da Embrapa com o intuito de subsidiar o processo de seleção de projeto de P&D. Assim, realizadas avaliações ex-ante dos impactos de ações desenvolvidas pelo AgroNordeste, abordando-se um enfoque multidimensional nos quais são analisados os impactos ambiental, econômico, social, institucional e de consumo. O processo fornecerá subsídios para uma melhor gestão do projeto e de seus resultados, além de valorizar os impactos gerados pelas tecnologias da Embrapa, assim como, também,... |
