What we do

- Maintaining and serving a global beekeeping network
- Compiling and distributing technical information
- Keeping beekeepers up-to-date with knowledge of events and training opportunities
- Putting people in touch with each other to share and learn
- Undertaking research, leading development projects, and advocating for policy change
- Offering a consultancy service to donors and development projects who need expertise on beekeeping in development
- Publishing Bees for Development Journal and disseminating to 130 countries
- Maintaining the Beekeeping Information Portal on this website
