Enhancing knowledge sharing in support of agricultural innovation:  Date Palm Innovation Platform

13 October 2022
10:00 am Jordan Time / 9:00 am CET time

Join Zoom Meeting:  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/4229973126?pwd=cXBaRGp5V3kwd1kzekFTeGRPQzlCQT09
Meeting ID: 422 997 3126
Passcode: 100

The region is experiencing a huge knowledge gap, as the information and knowledge produced locally are not easily accessible. To close the gap, FAO and AARINENA joined efforts to explore opportunities to sustainably improve the quality and quantity of date palm production and support the small-scale producers. This joint effort resulted in establishing a research, technology and innovation date palm virtual platform. This innovation platform provides, for the first time, a digital mean for collaboration and interaction between researchers, producers, funders, policy makers, private industries, government agencies and other stakeholders to maintain high competitiveness of date palm products in a dynamic global market.
