This book contains case studies of projects promoting Farmer Led Documentation (FLD) - a "participatory communication strategy" seeking to allow communities to document and share their local and indigenous knowledge. © 2010 PELUM Uganda Extract: Purpose of the Publication PROLINNOVA states that although development agents have been interested in FLD, little is known about the best designs of such documentation processes or about the available and appropriate media and their use including those making use of modern Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Therefore this publication aims at bringing out the FLD experience in varying settings in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia, as well as different areas of interest (Climate Change and variability, Natural Resource Management, Indigenous Knowledge and Local Innovations) in order to demonstrate the FLD documentation process, commonly used methods, tools, and the impact these have on the local communities where FLD is practiced. What is presented in the publication The publication presents the FLD experience through the farmers own viewpoint. The case studies presented in this publication were written by the implementers of the pilots and were shared and edited during a write shop organized by PELUM Uganda. The case studies demonstrate the ownership of the FLD process by the local communities which includes problem identification by participating communities, setting objectives to handle the identified problems using FLD and the process used. This process included documenting: how it was done, how the farmers were enabled to take lead, who was involved and their roles. This publication elaborates the strategies used in the FLD projects, the results of the implementation, lessons learnt, challenges met and how the process was being sustained in the local communities. Note: This resource was added to this database as part of a migration of resources from the now defunct CCRP Sphaera platform, and is still awaiting a comprehensive review and quality check.
