Université Lumière de Bujumbura, through its Faculty of Agronomy, marked World Food Day with a series of conferences focused on research and innovation.
The 46th edition of the FAO-established day was themed ‘Innovate today to feed tomorrow’. In Burundi, where most people depend on farming, agricultural research is seen as a strategic response to food challenges.
The university aims to put scientific results at the service of agricultural development, building bridges between researchers, students, farmers and decision-makers to produce better, reduce losses and improve food conservation.
