RIU - Research Into Use
 
 
Theme 2
Innovation in value chains

This theme has two projects trying to link the poor horticultural producers to markets, clustered together:
  • the project led by IDE, Nepal focus on improving the capacity of different actors in the existing value chain
  • the project led by ICUC in India focus on establishing an alternate value chain by promoting community based processing facilities.
 
Both these projects are expected to contribute to lessons on CRT's research strategy around:
  • capacity development-led innovation
  • opportunity-led innovation
