The Pacific Community (SPC) and the Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA) are jointly implementing a partnership to support Agricultural policy processes, value chains and extension support through stronger knowledge management (KM) concepts, approaches and tools.
The challenges for the agriculture sector in the Northern Pacific are immense. As small island states, they face special problems of scale, isolation and lack of resources but also vulnerability to natural disasters and climate change. However there opportunities to be gained by levering on digital and ICT, collaborating on common sector priorities and promoting niche products from the sub-region.
As small island states, much can be gained from regional or complementary approaches. One of these is around organizing, sharing and disseminating information among key stakeholders particularly the extension and research practices. As such, the SPC-CTA partnership is aimed at bringing in tested regional KM tools, approaches and products from SPC, CTA and other partners to build the knowledge base of the Pacific countries and how KM is better utilized to support agricultural policies, value chains and extension. SPC for instance has knowledge products and services such as crops and livestock databases which is aimed at ensuring these are visible and accessible to various stakeholders.
This Activity will support a number of major national initiatives for each of the Northern states such as:
