Arboreal Apiculture Salon #44
It will be an honor to have Dr. Robert Mutisi from Zimbabwe as our guests at the Salon. Robert is a professional forester who specialises in commercial and social forestry plantation development. A passionate beekeeper and trainer who contributes to improved African beekeeping systems that addresses sustainable issues related to poverty, hunger, and the environment. Robert has pioneered a Nature-based Beekeeping approach in Zimbabwe where communities in marginal areas have realised their potential. The use of low-cost hives made from local material, bee ecology and native species, inclusivity, non-hive centric, scalability and sustainability have been key issues around Nature-based Beekeeping. He holds an MBA, MALIC (Master of Arts in Leading Innovation and Change), and a PhD degree in Agriculture focusing on honey production and marketing and several international qualifications on development work. Robert is also a beekeeping article writer that comes out in professional journals, honey steward and judge and an international speaker on issues related to African beekeeping systems.
