2013 SEED Africa Award Lauréat-e Biodiversity Yumbe, Uganda

Blessed Bee for Life promotes modern beekeeping techniques by providing training in beekeeping, tree planting and the production of honey, wax and propolis, explicitly targeting the rural poor. The enterprise also promotes waste management during the training sessions, as sawdust from the construction of the hives is used as bio-fuel. The enterprise operates in rural Uganda. It aims to improve the livelihoods of the members of local communities by establishing new business collaborations and creating job opportunities.
