'''<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">Bekele</span>'''<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">what's new ... systems approach came out much more clearly / postharvest issues came up in addition to the production aspects</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">what's missing in our CN ... gender, needs to be much more clearly articulated, with numbers / climate change linkages?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">drastic change needed: our mindset/attitudes to deliver on multi-component, multi-org approach / need to engage more the farmers and the national partners, they are not enough in this discussion / move more to applied research that makes a difference to smallholders</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">we want to work together</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">still need to clearly define and decide who will do what in the project</span><br />
<br />
<br />
'''<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">africa rice</span>'''<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">what's new ... boundaries conversation; impact process; new purpose and goal and pillars of our CN</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">what's missing in our CN ... different geo location</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">what we will do together: baseline; something; strong involvement of development partners</span><br />
<br />
<br />
'''ben'''<br />
<br />
what's missing in our CN ... taking advantage of synergies ; planning for the early wins ; defining scale of focus/research/operation ; emphasis on capacity building<br />
<br />
drastic change needed ... livestock are in the background of the CN; livestock not really in the proposed activities<br />
<br />
what we will do together ... define roles of the partners; joint planning<br />
<br />
<br />
'''someone from iita'''<br />
<br />
what's new ...<br />
<br />
what's missing ... we need quantitative targets in the outcomes<br />
<br />
drastic change needed ... nutrition is not enough defined what we need to do<br />
<br />
what we will do together ... need to meet other key stakeholders not represented here<br />
<br />
<br />
'''said'''<br />
<br />
what's new ... here we left our institutional baggage behind<br />
<br />
drastic change needed ... need to bring the regional focus in more clearly (spillovers, learning platforms ..?)<br />
<br />
<br />
'''joseph'''<br />
<br />
what's missing in the CN ... our vision, what will we deliver? with evidence<br />
<br />
drastic changes ... not enough impact-oriented; be accountable for impact from our research (short and long term) / need to work more with the wider NARS (traders etc as well as extension as usual)<br />
<br />
what we will do together ... still to come; trust, inclusiveness, transparency, team working approaches<br />
<br />
<br />
'''jerry'''<br />
<br />
challenge ... need to (how to) revise the local CN's to the overarching project goals etc<br />
<br />
these workshops moving us to a richer conceptual place<br />
<br />
<br />
'''last person'''<br />
<br />
what's new ... geo focus to align with FtF, hoping for spillover to other rice-based areas; new purpose, etc<br />
<br />
what we will do together ... make a stakeholder platform; stakeholder to be shareholders</div>Peterballantyne
