Description:Country Leader, Connecting Research, Education, and Outreach (CREdO) - Peru
CALS International Programs is pursuing an innovative model for global engagement. The approach leverages the momentum and positioning of upper-middle-income countries that have fast-growing economies, but have struggled to grow their agricultural research, education, and outreach systems. Project Peru specifically is a CALS initiative in partnership with Concytec (National Council for Science and Technology, Lima, Peru), the Foreign Agricultural Service (US Embassy, Lima, Peru), INIA (National Institute for Agricultural Research, Lima, Peru), and the International Potato Center (Lima, Peru) to develop collaborations between NCSU researchers and extension specialists with their counterparts in Peru in order to strengthen research and extension capacities in Peruvian universities and research centers countrywide.
