FARA at ZAR4DIN, 23-27 August 2010

The ZAR4DIN Session started smoothly and gained speed with several sessions on various web 2, development and management of e-repositories, the eRAILS portal, etc.

Participants were very enthusiastic.

It is to be noted that Zambia is the first country from the SADC sub-region to have a training on the eRAILS portal. This is a great move and an opportunity as FARA and its member SROs are working on setting a pool of specialists on capacity building on the eRAILS, the African Portal on Agriculture.

The challenge now is to keep the momentum and go a step further by ensuring the presence of each organization on the portal.
