Empowerment of women is integral to the SANREM approach.

Projects seek common themes

When the SANREM CRSP chose its five Long-term Research Award (LTRA) activities for funding, those reviewing the proposals noted common themes in many of the projects. They recommended developing these as cross-cutting activities that would tie together synergies across SANREM's global work. In September 2007, the Technical Committee selected five cross-cutting iniatives for funding.

The projects, which encourage global collaboration among LTRA researchers, are watershed modeling  and assessment, linking knowledge and action, soil quality, soil metagenomics, and gendered access to markets. Details are on the cross-cutting web page.
