At TIES, we recently held a
training session on apiculture as part of our capacity-building initiatives.
The event aimed to promote apiculture within the community and highlight its
importance in the modern era.
Honey bees, the unsung heroes of
pollination, play a vital role in our ecosystem. Unfortunately, due to
escalating pollution, they are facing the threat of extinction, which could
have dire consequences for both biodiversity and human existence.
Dr. Punnen Kurian delivered an
introductory session on Honey bees. Mr. Sarath Babu NB, Nature Education
Officer at TIES, showcased various aspects of apiculture through live videos
and pictures. He also engaged participants with practical sessions, allowing
them to gain hands-on experience in handling bee colonies.
To ensure sustainability in
apiculture, participants were provided with membership to the TIES APICULTURE CLUB,
offering an interactive platform for ongoing support and learning.
