In a new publication, Regional Rural Development Center (RRDC) researchers, which include the SRDC’s director, John J. Green, share their key takeaways from adapting traditional community-engaged research approaches for an entirely virtual setting.
The year-long initiative was a collaboration among all four RRDCs and engaged the efforts of the entire RRDC staff. The project described here was funded by the New Technologies for Agricultural Extension grant program funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) and administered by the Extension Foundation.
The RRDCs are regionally focused centers funded by USDA NIFA through the U.S. Congress annual appropriations process. The RRDCs conduct research and outreach programming that builds the capacity of the Land-Grant University System to address crucial needs in our nation’s rural communities.
