Day 3 at the APR was conducted in the form of an "Open space". Participants were asked to come forward with issues that they either wanted to raise but hadn't had a chance to, or to suggest new topics for discussion. 17 sessions were eventually proposed and the group discussions took up the entire morning. The topics were:
- Trans-boundary issues in NRM
- How to influence governments
- South-south cooperation
- Addressing information asymmetry in value chains and forward-sales contracts
- Impact of disasters on micro-finance
- Poverty debt reduction improving the revenue of farmers (esp. with ICTs)
- Change adaptation
- More representation of the beneficiaries in project implementation committees
- Coping with delayed implementation
- Market development for selected value chains
- Search for uniting factors to sustainability and innovative financial investments
- Access to information by farmers to increase agricultural produce and information delivery for poverty reduction
- Key summaries of mini-workshop on evaluation
- Dealing with cassava pests and disease
- Innovation to improve the EDE continuum
