Sustainable Rural Livelihoods in Practice in Uganda - Breakout | 2022 Borlaug Dialogue

This breakout session was hosted by Iowa State University College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Iowa State University’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences launched the Center for Sustainable Rural Livelihoods in 2003 with private support, putting a rural livelihoods framework into practice with partners in rural Uganda. During nearly 20 years of field operations lessons were learned about the practical aspects of building a life-long capacity development model that works simultaneously on SDG’s 1 – 6. Iowa State University shared their model for sustainably building capacity of local communities. Dr. Daniel Robison, Endowed Dean’s Chair in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences moderated a panel of individuals from Iowa and Uganda who are directly involved in the program. Short summaries were presented on work in nutrition education, climate smart crop production, livestock production and health, youth entrepreneurship, community income generation, postharvest management of grains, water, sanitation and health, and educational quality improvement in rural areas.
