Project Update: April 2014

Activities:

Beekeeping training (livelihood component of the project)

The training brought together 21 participants, 18 of whom were from the two project and adjacent communities. Of the remaining three, one is a beehive technician and two are members of the project team. The 18 participants were trained as trainers to replicate the training in their respective communities.

Two beehives were constructed and installed. However, tools such as hammers, hand saw, zinc and nails were provided by the project team to support village level training to be conducted by villagers who benefited from the training of trainers workshop.
