NFP Fellowships available – apply
before 1 May 2012 -
Introduction
Agricultural production needs change. Innovative solutions are a
necessity to deal with challenges as diverse as climate change, emerging
diseases, and changing urban consumption patterns. By looking at agricultural
systems rather than their separate components, these challenges can be
addressed in an integral manner. This course looks at how to utilize the
combined potential of crop & livestock production systems with a
people-planet-profit perspective; how to combine technological solutions with
tailor made social innovation. It draws on the strong experience and expertise
of both Wageningen UR’s Centre for Development Innovation and the University of
the Philippines in Los Baños.

order to apply for such a NFP fellowship, you have to register through the Nuffic Scholarship
Online (SOL) system. Applications for NFP fellowships should be submitted before
