InnovATE Work Plan FY 2014

The goal of the Innovation for Agricultural Training and Education (innovATE) project is to develop the human and institutional capacity needed to promote the innovation necessary to achieve sustainable food security, reduce poverty, conserve natural resources, and address related development problems. We will define and disseminate strategies and approaches in support of agricultural education and training (AET) reform and investment. InnovATE will focus on all levels of education: youth, workforce development programs, primary and secondary educational systems, vocational/technical levels, and the university and post-graduate level. This is the work plan for the second year of the innovATE project. This introduction is followed by a short overview of Year 2 activities. Next, the activities for each of the project’s three components during Year 2 are described.
