In Casamance, Senegal, beekeeper Innocence Delphine Nzalé discusses how FAO’s SAGA 2 project has enhanced her beekeeping practices in response to climate change. She shares insights on selecting optimal locations, harvesting without fire, and environmental protection, and now trains others to apply this knowledge.

The project has also contributed to reforesting 30 hectares with melliferous trees and restoring 29 hectares of mangroves. For more information, visit the FAO SAGA page.
