Report to Global Giving (July 2016)
Winrock is pleased that five of the 32 Christopher Dowswell scholars have successfully completed their degree training. The remaining 27 scholars are making good progress. At a recent Regional Workshop of Universities participating in the Sasakawa Africa Fund for Extension Education Program (SAFE), it was decided to include Sokoine Agricultural University in Tanzania as a fourth country where female extension officers can apply for scholarships. The SAFE program specifically aims to improve the capacity of agricultural advisory services in Africa. During its twenty years of existence, the program has faced a continued shortage of female advisors. The Christopher Dowswell Scholarship Program is working to change that. Your continued support is helping us in this effort.
