Special Training Session Embedding DeSIRA projects into national innovation ecosystem: mapping of innovation support services (English session)

Part of the course: Conducting Action-Research interventions for strengthening Agricultural Innovation Systems

Module 2: Acting at the innovation support level

Some DeSIRA projects may struggle to find an operational way to better figure out the existing offer of organisations that provide innovation support services to farmers or to rural entrepreneurs. The objective of this special session is to provide learning inputs about innovation support services (ISS), and guidance about how to map ISS diversity in order to inform the Action-Research strategy of DeSIRA projects. Insights will be useful for researchers or project managers for having a visual overview of the offer of ISS, for identifying potential organizations to work with or for adapting the project strategy accordingly.
