Cette vidéo résume les réalisations et acquis du projet Orange Knowledge Programme Tailor-Made Training Plus (OKP/TMT+) au Bénin : « Renforcement de capacités des enseignants des lycées agricoles pour soutenir l’entrepreneuriat social basé sur l’innovation locale pour la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle ». Ce projet financé par Nuffic a été mis en œuvre dans le cadre d’un partenariat entre la Faculté d’Agronomie de l’Université de Parakou (Bénin), l’Institut Royal des Tropiques (KIT, Pays-Bas), AgriBio Services (Sénégal) et Prolinnova.
This video summarises the activities and achievements of the OKP/TMT+ project in Benin: “Building capacity of agricultural college teachers to support social entrepreneurship based on local innovation for food and nutrition security”. This Nuffic-funded project was implemented through a partnership between the Faculty of Agronomy of the University of Parakou (Benin), the Royal Tropical Institute (KIT, Netherlands), AgriBio Services (Senegal) and Prolinnova.
The documentation team of ACDEP, the host NGO of Prolinnova-Ghana, has produced a video film on how a women’s group in Yendi in northern Ghana improved its artisanal soap by using local herbs and other materials to give the soap new colours and shapes. They did this to meet the changing demands of local customers and have thus gained higher incomes that allow the women to purchase foodstuffs. The women developed this innovation in a process of farmer-led joint experimentation, working together with rural advisory agents, as part of the Proli-FaNS (Promoting Local Innovation for Food & Nutrition Security) project supported by Misereor / Catholic Central Agency for Development Aid (KZE).
