Description

Based on the success achieved during the first four courses, University of California at Davis (UC-Davis) as a part of its project on African Orphan Crop Consortium continues the African Plant Breeding Academy (AfPBA) in Nairobi, Kenya.
The fifth course offering is scheduled to be conducted over 18 months, with three 2 week sessions for the course. Each year, two sessions are held in May and November-December (3 sessions during the period being covered by this work plan). While the technical aspects of the academy are directly managed by the staff of UC-Davis, ICRAF supports the organizational and logistical matters of the academy.
