Consortium
The Trans-SEC consortium reported to the Project Management Jülich (PTJ) and consisted of seven German research institutes, five Tanzanian institutes and two international research centres from Kenya and USA. The German institutions comprised universities (UHOH, IUWHU), governmental institutes (ZALF, PIK, DIE) and private-consolidated research centres (DITSL), while the African partners were composed of a governmental research centres (ARI), a university (SUA), non-governmental organizations (ACT, TFC) and the national farmer association (MVIWATA). Approximately 100 scientists and additional stakeholder groups composed of non-governmental professionals contributed to the success of Trans-SEC. The consortium discussed and evaluated the results once a year in an annual conference.
