Learning from Experience
Assessment of what has worked and what has not in the Melanesian Farmer First Network.
The Melanesian Farmer First Network started in late-2002 with the aim of assisting participating organisations develop their capacity to plan and manage projects in sustainable agriculture, community health and development. In 2004, a meeting of Network member organisations at Gwaunafiu, Solomon Islands, assessed the strategies and approaches they had used and drew out learnings about what has worked and what has not worked. Assessing the usefulness of strategies, approaches and techniques is important to development organisations if they are to learn from experience and improve their work.
