Skills and practical learning

Practice question

How do growers, workers, advisers and teachers learn new practices in a way that lasts and can be passed on locally?

Local relevance

Technology only works when people can operate, maintain and adapt it. Route2030 combines workplace learning, short modules, demonstrations and train-the-trainer approaches, and exchanges between education and practice in both countries. Growers' own knowledge is a starting point. Young people and women are explicit target groups for accessible participation.

Possible interventions

• Short practical modules linked to demonstration
• Coaching on the farm
• Development of local trainers
• Multilingual instruction, later including Darija and subtitled video
• Learning questions for internships and applied research

Conditions

• Commitment of local training institutions
• Practical assessment rather than attendance only
• Materials adapted to language and literacy levels

Research questions

• Which learning formats lead to actual application on the farm?
• How can local trainers be supported after the programme?

Measurement points

• Unique participants, completion and practical assessment
• Number and activity of local trainers
