About Bees For Development Ghana
We work to reduce poverty and reverse biodiversity loss by supporting sustainable and inclusive development of the Ghanaian beekeeping sector. We train beekeepers and help them to market their products reliably and profitably. We strengthen farmers’ livelihoods, through improved pollination and additional revenue streams. We enable children in basic schools to learn about honey bees and how they too can benefit from keeping them.
