Root, Tuber and Banana Food System Innovations
This open access book describes recent innovations in food systems based on root, tuber and banana crops in developing countries. These innovations respond to many of the challenges facing these vital crops, linked to their vegetative seed and bulky and perishable produce. The innovations create value, food, jobs and new sources of income while improving the wellbeing and quality of life of their users. Women are often key players in the production, processing and marketing of roots, tubers and bananas, so successful innovation needs to consider gender. These crops and their value chains have long been neglected by research and development, hence this book contributes to filling in the gap. The book features many outcomes of the CGIAR Research Program in Roots, Tubers and Banana (RTB), which operated from 2012-21, encompassing many tropical countries, academic and industry partners, multiple crops, and major initiatives. It describes the successful innovation model developed by RTB that brings together diverse partners and organizations, to create value for the end users and to generate positive economic and social outcomes. RTB has accelerated the scaling of innovations to reach many end users cost effectively. Though most of the book¿s examples and insights are from Africa, they can be applied worldwide. The book will be useful for decision makers designing policies to scale up agricultural solutions, for researchers and extension specialists seeking practical ideas, and for scholars of innovation.

Analyse des Skandals um Michel Friedman im Rahmen der Skandaluhr nach Burkhardt
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Fachkommunikation, Sprache, Note: 1,7, Universität Siegen (Lehrstuhl für Mediensoziologie), Veranstaltung: Medienskandale und Medienstigmata, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Bestimmte Medien sind dafür bekannt, dass sie nicht davor zurückschrecken, Skandale zu erzeugen um die Öffentlichkeit zu unterhalten. Die systematische Betrachtung und Analyse von öffentlichen Skandalen findet im Rahmen der Skandalforschung statt und gewinnt seit Anfang des einundzwanzigsten Jahrhunderts zunehmend Anerkennung in der Wissenschaft. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird der Skandal um Michel Friedman anhand der Skandaluhr nach Burkhardt analysiert.In einem ersten Schritt wird der Begriff des Skandals anhand verschiedener Konzepte und Definitionen vorgestellt. Außerdem wird das Konzept der Skandaluhr nach Burkhardt skizziert und dargestellt. Dabei verfolgt diese Ausarbeitung das Ziel, das Konzept der Skandaluhr auf den Fall Friedman anzuwenden und somit die einzelnen Phasen des Skandals herauszuarbeiten und zu beschreiben.Der Skandal beschreibt den Verlauf eines bestimmten Sachverhaltes, welcher durch die Medien in die Öffentlichkeit getragen wird und somit öffentliches Aufsehen erregt. Skandale entstehen dabei meist durch ein privates oder öffentliches Fehlverhalten einer öffentlichen oder nicht-öffentlichen Person. In der Konsequenz wird diese Person von der Öffentlichkeit verurteilt und ausgegrenzt. Ob die öffentliche Bewertung und Disqualifizierung einer Person letztlich gerechtfertigt ist, wird meist im Zuge der Berichterstattung außer Acht gelassen und findet in der öffentlichen Debatte keinerlei Beachtung.
