Project "SNIA Casanare" presents the partial results before the CTeI actors of the department

Yopal, Casanare. April 17, 2023. One year after starting its articulation activities, the SNIA Casanare project recounts its activities through a forum of actors that impact Agricultural Science, Technology, and Innovation in the department of Casanare (CTeI).

On March 28, 29, and 30 in the municipalities of Paz de Ariporo, Monterrey, and Yopal, the project "Strengthening the articulation and territorial governance of the National System of Agricultural Innovation in the department of Casanare," an alliance of AGROSAVIA together with Universidad de La Salle and Universidad Externado de Colombia, carried out the "Partial Results Socialization Forum," a space where a summary of the activities carried out throughout the development of the project was shared. Experiences, analyses, and conclusions generated from developing these activities were shared in these events. Likewise, these sought to promote participation and feedback among actors through discussion topics concerning the agricultural CTeI of the department. This exercise allows the project to continue building and optimizing strategies for the planned activities in the remaining project period.

This forum convened different types of actors that comprise the institutionality around the SNIA, including researchers, association leaders, public policy agents, leaders of CTeI Agropecuaria, the academic community of professional and technical careers with agricultural approaches with whom work has been carried out on the previous activities of the project, such as workshops to recognize actors, socialization of priority actions of CTeI, meetings with regional instances, information gathering for indicators, a Linkata meeting and the diploma in "Strategic Management of Agricultural Innovation."

Within the framework of its development, the "SNIA Casanare" project contemplates a total of three sessions of these partial meetings with a replica in the municipalities of Monterrey and Paz de Ariporo. However, a massive call is made at the departmental level, hoping that with the results of these, the four nodes (actors, instances, instruments, and agendas) are articulated and, therefore, the decision processes in the agricultural sector of the department of Casanare are facilitated.
