User testimonial

This is a three-year (2019-2021) and 2.5M project awarded by IFAD to the Integrated Breeding Platform (IBP) and hosted at the AfricaRice Center, under the title: Enhancing institutional breeding capacity in Ghana, Senegal and Uganda to develop climate-resilient crops for African smallholder farmers. The project will support an important capacity building component, namely by integrating the work of PhD and MSc students from the Makerere Regional Center for Crop Improvement (MaRCCI) within project activities. 

These students we hear in this playlist participated in the Project's Annual Meeting in Kampala, Uganda (4-8 March 2018), and we are proud to have them at the heart of the project’s vision of success.
