1 Bee Health & Pollination services: Recent advances, in the AU/icipe/EU partnership in Africa Animal Production Unit AU-IBAR 1st MS_GA, Harare-Zimbabwe November, 2015
2 EU: 8,800,000 Euros; Duration: To enhance the contribution of bees and other pollinators to food security and improved livelihoods in Africa. To improve bee products and pollination services through reduced incidence of bee diseases and pests, enhanced markets access, and bee health institutional environment Bee health facilities for innovative technologies and provision of pests risk analysis baselines and benchmarks established Validated bee disease and pest management modules with efficient field based diagnostic tools developed 6 Activities 6 Activities
3 Bee health facilities for innovative technologies and provision of pests risk analysis baselines and benchmarks established

15 Activity 5: Evaluating bee health hazard and risk through effective technologies such as morphometrics and DNA finger printing and vitellogenin levels Fore wing, Hind wing and hind leg of the 7 species showing the similarities and variation between species
16 Activity 6: Developing of plant based bio-pesticide for bee diseases and pests and production of over 200,000 pieces of bee pest and disease control products for Farmers Federations/beekeepers in 5 countries in Africa Environmental friendly product to control Varroa mite been tested
17 EU: 4,808,000 Euros; AUC: 300,000 Euros Duration: To enhance the contribution of bees and other pollinators to food security and improved livelihoods in Africa. To improve bee products and pollination services through reduced incidence of bee diseases and pests, enhanced markets access, and bee health institutional environment Enhanced awareness on the honeybee health and conducive environment for enhanced bee disease control, access to markets, and consumer safety created Capacity of beekeepers/farmers federations, RECs and NARS on bee health management systems and policy options strengthened 6 Activities 5 Activities
18 Enhanced awareness on the honeybee health and conducive environment for enhanced bee disease control, access to markets, and consumer safety created
19 Activity 1: Organize effective multi-stakeholder partnerships and mechanisms for the development of policy, institutional and market options for bee health and pollination services for food security A MSP for the development of policy, institutional and market options for bee health and pollination services established Establishment of A continental Multi Stakeholders Platform (MSP) for honey production, bee health & pollination services. Launching of the MSP: African Apiculture Platform (AAP). Three working groups established (Bee health; Pollination Services & biodiversity conservation; and Production, Marketing and Technologies). 1 st Executive Committee (EC) meeting of AAP organised Rules and regulations governing AAP 2 nd (AAP) Executive Committee (EC) meeting organized 2 nd Member State General Assembly of the African Apiculture
