Different countries have different experience in designing and implementing pluralistic extension services systems based on their specific situation, challenges, and priorities. The Office of Innovation and the Regional Office for Africa of FAO, and the African Forum for Agricultural Advisory Services (AFAAS) initiated a joint activity in documenting and showcasing different good practices of pluralistic Extension and Advisory systems (EAS) in countries in Africa; and facilitating knowledge and experience sharing among countries across the region. Three cases have been selected for the webinar through a rigorous selection process.
In this regard, two separate webinars are being organized (In English and French).
