Background
In November 2006, Pelum Uganda and Prolinnova, with the support
of Oxfam Novib, organised an international exchange meeting
/ workshop on the use of
"farmer led documentation" in sustainable
agriculture and natural resource management. (Full proceedings
can be found on the Prolinnova website under http://www.prolinnova.net/fld.php)
The workshop provided participants and organisers with the
opportunity to further develop thoughts and ideas on the What
and How of farmer led documentation- Details
Those
involved in the workshop would like to solicit feedback on
the issue of farmer led documentation.
Do you have any experience in documentation projects whereby
the level of participation from the community exceeded that
of mere 'participation' but moved to a level where community
members actually took the lead in the documentation process,
expressing their own voice on the topics of their choice,
through media they preferred?
What were the experiences, what were the challenges?
Is any of this documented somewhere and would you be willing
to share this?
Do you recognise the issues and challenges as mentioned
in the brochure mentioned above?
If not, if you disagree, would you care to explain your
view?
Please contact should you have any experiance about FLD practices
elsewhere, especially also the more traditional forms of 'documentation'
e.g. through play, story or music.
