Today is the second day in Huye. We went to Matyazo first and had an exciting adventure. After the hiking, we asked several questions about beekeeping and training in cooperatives, such as the length of training program, knowledge they got from training, and discussed how to build ethical beekeeping and the challenges and opportunities for beekeeping industry.
After lunch, we went to Arboretum de Ruhande and had a meeting with Dr. Ivan Casancwa who is the forest research division manager of Rwanda Forestry Authority. We learned a lot about the community development, forest ownership and management. That information could provide more insights for our beekeeping project. Then we went to Rwanda Agriculture Board to have a visit of office and hives. We were well protected by the suits and everyone was excited this experience of opening the hive and seeing how the bees worked in it.
