Title Towards Extension-plus: Opportunities and Challenges Policy Brief 17
 
Creator Sulaiman, V R
Hall, A
 
Subject Agriculture-Farming, Production, Technology, Economics
 
Description Evidence from recent debates and empirical cases suggests
the need for a more broadly conceived notion of extension –
referred to here as extension-plus. However in order to
operationalise this vision of extension-plus, it is not only
necessary to understand the new scope of the extension task,
but also to understand ways of stimulating a diversity of
extension innovations that respond adaptively to local and
evolving circumstances. This policy brief outlines both the scope
of extension-plus and the value of learning-based approaches
to developing extension innovations. It also discusses the
challenges for extension reform of promoting a learning-based
approach in public bodies where such processes of change
clash with prevailing organisational cultures.
