One of the objectives of the training course is the experience and the
understanding of how to structure effective international collaboration
in rice science. The participants were divided into five working groups
which maximized their diversity in terms of discipline, age, gender and
country. Each group was tasked to design and draft a project proposal
and to present that proposal at the end of the course.
The five project themes that were developed and presented by the participants are as follows:
- Cyber Village
- The Next Phase
Improve farmer access to information and technology across the Philippines
- An
Agronomic Revolution
Allelopathy in Rice
- Securing
Rice for Tomorrow
- Climate Change Adaptation in Bangladesh: A Pilot project to Address SOil Salinity in the Shatkhira and Khulna Districts
-
Bridging
the gap:
Developing rice seed cooperatives in Lao PDR
The
Rice Research to Production Course was funded by the National Science
Foundation (NSF) of the United States, George Liang (Philanthropist),
the GATSBY Charitable Foundation, the ATSE Crawford Fund, Department of
Agriculture – Bureau of Agricultural Research (Philippines) and the
International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) through sponsorship from
specific on-going projects and partnerships.
