What role can higher education play in agricultural development in Africa?

The Africa-US Higher Education Initiative is currently hosting a web-based consultation, open to anyone, about what role higher education can play in agricultural development in Africa.

The dialogue began on Oct 20th and will close on Oct. 29th.

In mid-November, there will be a call for proposals for planning grants. Watch for details in the October 29th Science Policy Report.
