In Northern Tanzania stingless bees are widely known 

for their medicinal honey. Some people keep the bees 

under the eaves of their houses as first aid boxes. 

The knowledge around sustainable beekeeping practices,

however, is rather limited. By adopting sustainable meliponicultural 

and pollinator-friendly farming practices, trainees gain supplemental 

income through stingless bee product sales better yields.

We work with selected community leaders who will further 

disseminate sustainable practices in their communities and 

encourage a mentoring system amongst farmers.
