The Development-Smart Innovation through Research in Agriculture Initiative (...Francois Stepman
The DeSIRA initiative was launched in 2017. The objective is to contribute to climate-relevant, productive and sustainable transformation of agriculture and food systems in low and middle-incomes countries
Three outcomes are expected:
• Foster innovation in agriculture through research for Food, Nutrition Security, and Sustainable Agriculture with a climate change perspective
• Strengthen national agricultural research (capacities, governance mechanisms) and innovation systems
• Improve efficiency of research and innovation support services for climate resilient food systems by enhancing evidence for policy design and implementation
The strategic approach for DeSIRA is based on the following key points:
• Connecting both EU & EU Member States development agendas and national priorities regarding agricultural and food systems
• Linking research and innovation to contribute to impacts at scale addressing climate change with clusters of projects funded by UE and Member States
• Strengthening national research capacities both at individual and organizational levels
• Contributing to the continental (Africa) and global governance of research (GFAR, CGIAR, AIRCA)
• Building strong partnerships involving European, International and National research capacities
• Contributing to the assessment and fostering of Agricultural Innovation Systems and national innovation policies with a Capacity to innovate based approach

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

In addition to offering my frank assessment of Success Insider’s LMA Course, this piece examines the course’s effects via a variety of Tim Han LMA course reviews and Success Insider comments.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. The International Code of
Conduct for the Sustainable
Use and Management of
Fertilizers
Zineb Bazza
2. The International Code of Conduct for the
Sustainable Use and Management of Fertilizers
A response to:
• COAG 25 recommendation for:
“FAO to intensify its food safety work and
technical support to smallholders at local
level concerning the safe use of
fertilizers and pesticides”
• Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
• UNEA 3 Resolution on managing soil pollution to
achieve Sustainable Development.

Sustainable Use and Management of Fertilizers
• A vehicle for the implementation of the
Voluntary Guidelines for Sustainable Soil
Management (FAO, 2017)
4. The International Code of Conduct for the
Sustainable Use and Management of Fertilizers
• The creation of the Code is being proposed to
promote the responsible and judicious use of
fertilizers to prevent inappropriate use, underuse
and overuse.
• The aim is to assist member countries design
