Summary

African forests are biodiverse habitats and diminishing. They are also full of honey bees, which if sustainably managed deliver income and create economic incentive for forest maintenance. The relationship between beekeeping and conservation is recognised, but too many projects take beekeeping out of the forest, break this link, over-rely on beehive handouts and fail to meet expectations. We will create high-quality videos, shared on YouTube, to build the capacity and capability of conservation professionals to deliver successful Nature-based Beekeeping projects.
