  Activity/Product Description
    
MOREP I 1. Stakeholder network analysis to identify institutional set up of the IP. 2. Establish and maintain functional IPs as mechanisms for facilitating transitions in farming systems and enhance capacities of farmer-extension-NARs in the process. 3. Jointly identify/revise development pathways and associated high potential value chains, barriers to and solutions for systems improvement. 4. Stakeholder exploration of value chain opportunities. 5. Develop and use tools for improving self-organization andmulti-level learning in and across IPs. MOREP II 1. To develop a functional IP that identifies, revises and tests multiple market opportunities (‘quick wins’) along pathways towards inclusive market access. 2. To develop a tool for diagnosing and monitoring multi-level learning (MLL) and generate and test group dynamics / learning interventions that enhance innovation. 3.To define the grammar of the entire system (e.g. structure, culture, practices) and assess changes to that grammar as a result of the IP approach.
