Farmer-to-farmer videos in a collaborative research network
- 1. Farmer to farmer videos in a collaborative research network Perspectives from the collaboration between the Collaborative Crop Research Program (CCRP) of the McKnight Foundation and Access Agriculture
- 2. Where We Work Peru Ecuador Bolivia Uganda Kenya Malawi Tanzania Burkina Faso Mali Niger Portfolio of around 18 projects, 3 years, $300,000, multiple phases
- 3. What: agroecological research for action How: Participatory, collaborative, multi- sector, transdisciplinary CCRP
- 4. CCRP collaboration with Access Agriculture 6 years ago to help with strategic support area of: Learning and communications: documentation as a form of knowing, reflecting, learning and sharing among and for various audiences • Research audience: peer reviewed journal articles • Practitioner/ technician/ facilitator: grey literature, LEISA • Consumers/ lay public: radio, social media, media • Decision makers: short policy briefs • Farmers: videos
- 5. CCRP collaboration with Access Agriculture • Asking projects to do a video every phase or so • Script writing workshop • Filming based on farmer testimonies, farmer peer review Also have translated hundred of AA videos into dozens of languages that projects have used
- 6. “To my fellow farmers from different places, I recommend that you first plant like an experiment. So you can see the results, because when you do not see the results you may be unsure about planting cultivated fodder”
- 7. Scaling Deep Who’s knowledge counts Jose Santamarí a (Alaquez Barrio San Isidro) Recording a video here in my house was a nice experience since I had the opportunity to share knowledge about what is done here, in my location, and another nice experience and have the opportunity that this is disseminated in other parts of the world. Know our way of working here, the farmer, so it seems an excellent opportunity to me to share my small know-how.
- 8. We have learned in a group, in the workshop (watching the videos), then I have transmitted it to my family. I have transmitted that this is good, that it's not difficult. It's not expensive either. So, it has helped us a lot to share through the workshops, we have learned, we have practiced, and we have noted the difference. Yes it's been very helpful in our community.
- 9. Scaling up • Using videos to introduce farmer voice in various forums
- 11. “It was interesting to see, in local language, representations of the global contexts and of other cultures, principally, and other ways of dressing, other ways of working. But the interesting thing is they have the same focus to talk about: take care of the earth, take care of seed, make organic products. This definitely, in a more global context, makes us locate ourselves that we are not just in one territorial space, that there is no other space. And that they are just languages, ways of dressing of a space. So, these territorial, spatial gaps are broken when we see other cultures talking about the same problem of pests, of the same problem of climate change. So with the videos, with the language, which is the most important is the people of a community, for example, Ayamara, seeing people from a community in Africa, talking about the same things, working on the same thing, this helps to break the spatial barriers.”
