Capitalizing analytically (CAN) in documenting and characterizing
CAN : an Internet tool for capitalizing
It is not possible to consider capitalizing in an absolute way, either for the area considered in AFOMDnet project (foodcrop production, markeging and diversification) or any other area. Capitalizing must refer to an analytical framework implying that an analytical approach has to be specifically clarified for the area considered. The CAN tool, for Capitalizing ANalytically, is carried out to assist in the analytical approach for various areas of production.
First version of a first capitalizing tool
The CAN tool is carried out by CIRAD, from his experience in developing and improving the SLIRE tool, both combining referencing and characterizing.
The tool used within the Project is a first version that could be improved in the future. This first version is sufficiently developed so as to permit other researchers' network to adopt it.
The tool is now operational at its specific website.
The use of the tool is quite simple; its users' manual (so far only available in French) can be downloaded at the tool website or here

An analytical and hierarchical approach to characterize actions which have been conducted
How to have clear vision among so many actions being conducted?
A great deal of actions have been conducted within numerous initiatives to promote agricultural actions in developping countries; the objectives associated to these actions were more or less clear. A framewirk is needed to help inform about these actions.
