Abstract

The project aims at developing, testing and sharing a conceptual framework for implementing and assessing gender-responsive information and communication technology (ICT4scale), for scaling agricultural solutions in rural regions. Farm Radio Trust (FRT) leads in the field of information, communication, extension and advisory services with a growing reputation in program and policy development across sub-Saharan Africa. Members of FRT may be engaged in case study and intervention research work throughout the project based on their relevance to the research topic and their geographic focus. The project will examine the role and contribution of ICT in enabling scaling-up of agricultural solutions.
