Last week, icipe joined the global community in Turin, Italy, for vibrant deliberations on advancing the insects sector at #IFW2026. We were honoured to participate prominently in the conference, with @Shaphan_Chia speaking on our breakthrough in using black soldier fly fat as a healthier alternative in guinea pig feed and Dennis @beesigamukama presenting our advances in the production and application of insect frass fertilisers.

Waambie waulize @icipe hapo Nairobi. Shida wakati wenzao wanasoma, wao walikuwa wanamchungulia mwalimu kwa rula sasa hivi ukubwani wanachekeshwa na ‘career’ za watu waliokuwa siriaz.

As our global network continues to grow, these engagements help lay the foundation for stronger collaboration across institutions, disciplines, and countries. Next, we look back on an important milestone that marked a new chapter for OHGA in Asia. #OHGA #DNDi #ILRI #IGAD #icipe

🌱 Field learning in action: BVAT recently assessed PPT implementation among farmers in Rwanda through a joint monitoring visit. The visit was led by Mr. Chris Bundi (Rwanda Farmer Communication and Outreach Manager), alongside icipe and TOFAS teams, reaching 4 farmers on the ground. Despite ongoing drought conditions, farmers demonstrated strong understanding of PPT management practices. The PPT demonstration farm continues to perform well, reflecting effective adoption of agroecological approaches. This highlights the value of continuous farmer engagement in building climate resilience through practical agroecology. #BVAT #ClimateResilience #Agroecology #FarmerLearning
