Re: Ensuring that clients benefit from agricultural research



Hello everybody,

I would like to react to both Paul Mundy and Tomothy woods. I am a 
development professional working with CARE India in the field of 
livelihoods enhancement.

Paul Mundy is very right in pointing out that there is a great 
communication gap between Lab and land ie between the research work and 
its extension. Timothy Woods and his team at IDS are doing a great work 
in information dissemination through e-groups, but my concern is that 
there are few development practioners in India who are aware of these 
types of servies. Again whoever are aware of these types of services are 
the ones who are mostly at the project formulation level. I feel that 
there is a lot of communication gap in countries like India betwen the 
formulator and the implementer. 

I feel that organisations like DFID should also strive to bridge the gap 
between the two through some concrete measures like creating a strong 
link between the two.

Sincerely yours

Shakeb Nabi
