[2010] The main objective of this booklet is to provide an overview of current initiatives and projects focusing on Communication for Development applied to natural resources management and agriculture in the region, assess the main challenges, and identify links and opportunities to strengthen their collaboration and further advance Communication for Development in the region.
The study highlights three main areas that need to be addressed to improve and increase ComDev initiatives and ensure that they become embedded in development interventions in the region: institutional support, national reviews and capacity building. By raising issues and making suggestions for the way forward, the booklet aims to trigger more in-depth analyses and encourage more documentation and sharing of experiences, to strengthen Communication for Development in the region.
