Inception Workshop: ‘The Future of Rice in Wayanad’
From 16th to 18th February 2011, the BioDIVA Inception workshop presents the starting point of an inter- and transdisciplinary research endeavour on the social-ecological complexities of rice production systems in Wayanad district. The overall aim is to introduce the use of participatory approaches including tools of land use modelling. During this, the development of a ‘sustainable future for rice production’ in Wayanad will be discussed among all workshop participants in order to draw up action points for collaboration and identify criteria and special features that will impact on the study.
The workshop is organised in Kalpetta by our partner, the M S Swaminathan Research Foundation (India) and BioDIVA International.
Addendum: As of November 2011, the workshop report is available for download.
