This is in recognition of the potential gains (and concerns) in relevance, equity, sustainability and efficiency that can be obtained from the work we do if we recognise and be conscious about the different roles of men, women and children. Who can apply Three-page pre-proposals are requested from teams of researchers and development practitioners who may be based in the National Agricultural Research Institutes, Universities, commodity/factor networks, development agencies, non-governmental organisations, etc. in the ten ASARECA member countries. Mixed teams of biophysical and social scientists would be an added advantage. The duration for the study will be 9-12 months and the estimated budget will range from US$ 5,000-10,000.
