Digital Communication for Agricultural and Rural Development: Participatory Practices in a Post-COVID Age de Ataharul Chowdhury

Digital Communication for Agricultural and Rural Development: Participatory Practices in a Post-COVID Age: Earthscan Food and Agriculture

Editat de Ataharul Chowdhury, Gordon A. Gow
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 iul 2024
This volume presents insights on the challenges of digital communication and participation in agricultural and rural development. The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed that digital technology and mediated participation is more important and essential in managing ongoing communication for development projects than ever before. However, it has also underscored the various challenges and gaps in knowledge with digital participatory practices, including the further exclusion of marginalized groups and those with limited access to digital technology. The book considers how the concept of participation has been transformed by the realities of the pandemic, reflecting on essential principles and practical considerations of communication for development and social change, particularly in the context of global agriculture and food security, the well-being of rural communities, and evolving environmental challenges, such as climate change. In gathering these insights, this volume highlights lessons for the future of participatory development in communication for development and social change processes. This volume will be of great interest to students and scholars of agricultural and rural development, communication for development, digital communication, and sustainable development more broadly.
