HiveTracks 2022 Update and AID-CSB Partnership in Uzbekistan and Ethiopia (S4, E40)

HiveTracks 2022 Update and AID-CSB Partnership in Uzbekistan and Ethiopia (S4, E40)

On today's episode, we invite back friend of the podcast, James Wilkes to talk about the latest updates and changes to the HiveTracks: the Beekeeper's Companion, which has grown beyond being just a great hive management application for your mobile device. We also talked about the exciting new international program he and our other two guests, Laura Becker and Sarah Denton are working on to localize the Beekeeper's Companion app for women beekeepers in Uzbekistan, Ethiopia, and Lebanon.

In those developing countries, beekeeping is more than a hobby, it is a means to a better livelihood in the face of climate change. The AID-CSB projects localize the Beekeeper's Companion app to incorporate traditional and local beekeeping knowledge along with weather data to help beekeepers monitor and manage their hives.

Let us know what you think by leaving comments for this episode above. Start a discussion!

Thank you for listening!
