内容

Agroecosystems in south-eastern Cameroon contain significant floristic diversity which is vital for subsistence and cash income of local communities. However, this agrobiodiversity is still far from meeting the requirements of a balanced diet. Using a case study in Gribe village in southeast Cameroon, the seminar will discuss pathways for harnessing biodiversity conservation, sustainable land management, food security, and resilience to the effects of climate change.
