Role in SalFar
ILVO will contribute with its expertise in participatory processes and will support WP 6 in organizing awareness raising and capacity building events. As the innovative concept of saline agriculture is dismissed as undesirable by many farmers and authorities, ILVO will provide academic support for the educational programs of the SalFar partnership. The methodology will include workshops, focus groups, explorative and in-depth interviews, farmer trips, farmer cafés, workshops for reg. authorities.
