Recognising the Unrecognised: Farmer Innovation in Northern Malawi

Our approach in Malawi focuses on investing in farmers who have a natural aptitude for finding innovative solutions to their challenges, and then supporting them to develop and share their ideas and knowledge with fellow farmers. To acknowledge their progress and showcase the ingenuity of their innovations, we published this report supported by the European Union and The Development Fund. It showcases the roles farmers play in the dissemination of new technologies, approaches and systems to aid their development.

This is an academic paper co-authored by our Director, published in the Journal of Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems.
