Research on Integrated Farming helps to Fight AIDS while Promoting Sustainable Development

Janet Feldman recently introduced us to Rita Agboh-Noameshie who is Coordinator of the event also of the System-Wide Initiative on HIV-AIDS and Agriculture (SWIHA), which is housed at the Africa Rice Center in Benin, John Woodend is assisting her in organizing the conference. He is Programme Coordinator for CTA (EU-ACP Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation), in the Netherlands.

I recently submitted an abstract to present at the conference highlighting two inspirational projects in the ZERI network that showcase an approach OVF believes could not only help Africa but the world as a whole to develop more sustainable approaches which are economically viable as well. One is Songhai in Benin. This project is based partially on the work of Dr. Margaret Tagwira on AIDS and mushrooms, in ZW.

The Title was "Research on Integrated Farming helps to Fight AIDS while Promoting Sustainable Development" (Download Word Doc).
