ZALF invites you to “Colombia Day” on May 24, 2019, 09:30 am - 2:00 pm.
As part of a new ZALF project in Colombia researchers are investigating to what extent sustainable land use systems and food security can positively contribute to supporting the peace process in Colombia. A delegation from the National University in Bogota, Colombia, will visit ZALF. During this visit there will be a public workshop with lectures and discussions regarding:
- the interdisciplinary networking of research activities with Latin America;
- exchanges of current research approaches and current political developments; and
- further planning of future research initiatives.
Colombia Day is a part of the research project "Implementing sustainable agricultural and livestock systems for simultaneous targeting of forest conservation for climate change mitigation (REDD+) and peace-building in Colombia," which started in 2019 at ZALF.
This project is part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI). The Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) supports this initiative on the basis of a decision adopted by the German Bundestag.
