'Africa's Development Can't Be Outsourced' – Continent Needs Indigenous-Led Conservation & Growth, Ethiopian Expert Says
A new approach is needed to step up efforts to conserve Africa's natural resources and environment, agricultural researcher Dr. Tsedeke Abate told Sputnik Africa on the occasion of International Day for Biological Diversity, observed annually on May 22.
"There is lots to be gained by bringing together as many initiatives as possible […] coordination is key," noted the researcher, who is an ex-director general of the Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research.
As BRICS leads global tree-planting efforts, Ethiopia has a growing role in climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation, the expert emphasized.
"There are lots of lessons that Ethiopian and African agriculture has learned from Russia over the last 5+ decades of doing agricultural development," he added.
The Ethiopian Biodiversity Institute launched a four-day exhibition showcasing the country's plant and animal genetic resources to promote conservation awareness. The event draws students and researchers, highlighting the institute's Gene Bank, which holds over 529,795 accessions.
