End of an era. Last day of BRECcIA. A very educational and enriching time, all the best to my colleagues in their next steps!

Great work done today by our Ghana colleagues in Nungu Community Durbar, Talensi District, Upper East Region. Research findings communicated and simple indigenous water purification techniques shared with the community. Filtering, boiling, then cooling water b4 drinking:

Coordinating a photo virtually or in person can be just as difficult!

Dr Betty Chinyamunyamu, CEO National Smallholder Farmers' Assoc.of Malawi, explains how research can assist farmers in Africa, especially as they deal with challenges of climate change - see slide. @GCRF_BRECcIA @Vitae_news @BBCCountryfile @UoS_Engagement @PublicPolicyUoS

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Dr Chinyamunyamu from Malawi advocates stronger linkages between researchers, farmers, NGOs & private sector. She urges researchers to look beyond the obvious subjects, ie farmers, to wider community & knowledges. @GCRF_BRECcIA @UoS_Engagement @PublicPolicyUoS @Vitae_news

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Dr Chinyamunyamu from Malawi says urbanisation bringing changes in consumer demands that farmers need help from researchers to enable them to respond to changes. We need to move from 'participatory research' to 'Demand Driven Research'. @GCRF_BRECcIA @Vitae_news @UoS_Engagement

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Wassam Dbouk giving great feedback @GCRF_BRECcIA Researchers need to link their findings more carefully to solutions & recommendations. Use policy synthesis, analyse different stockholder perspectives & align with a specific policy setting/objectives. @PublicPolicyUoS

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Andrew Jamali, Malawi, urges researchers to look at urban communities as well as rural ones. Also to consider what can be achieved by local policy makers alongside or even instead of central policy makers. @GCRF_BRECcIA @PublicPolicyUoS

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Andrew Jamali from Malawi commends @GCRF_BRECcIA research for timeliness & usefulness. Yet, they are specific studies & he urges us to speak to an 'integrated policy design' as lots of policy areas are involved. Again, this is why we need to be interdisciplinary @PublicPolicyUoS

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

The Hon.Madalitso Kazombo urges researchers to write papers local communities can read - rather than for academic journals. @GCRF_BRECcIA @UoS_Engagement

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Hon.Madalitso Kazombo from Malawi says we need to encourage youths to see value in farming: is this where public engagement with research can impact? He was expecting to see link between water, crops & farmers to markets. This is why we must be interdisciplinary @GCRF_BRECcIA

[Julie Reeves @JulieDReeves]

Hon Dr Bernice Heloo: In a changing environment we need synergies. Researchers can't just do their own thing, policy makers can't keep coming up with their own thing, whilst communities are left doing what they think is best, we need collaborations. @GCRF_BRECcIA @Vitae_news

[BRECcIA @GCRF_BRECcIA]

We have kicked off the final day of the BRECcIA Water and Food Security Conference.

We are listening to the fantastic Dr Betty Chinyamunyamu, CEO of @NASFAM1 (National Smallholder Farmer's Association Malawi)
