Our team members Hoa Do and co-authors shared insights in their talk, ‘Development of Agroforestry in Upland Northern Vietnam: A Farmers’ Perspective,’ offering a grounded perspective on sustainable agriculture. Meanwhile, Alexandra Krause and colleagues presented ‘Empowering Rural Farm Women in Agricultural Development: A Decision Analysis Approach with a Focus on Gender,’ adding a thoughtful layer to gender dynamics in agriculture.
In the spotlight was the HortiBonn project led by Dr. Cory Whitney, making waves at Tropentag. Dang To Kien engaged in a panel discussion on ‘Leveraging Human Rights-Based Action towards Equitable Food Systems,’ hosted by the German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL). Dang also presented ‘Preserving Food Environments and Livelihoods: Transitions and Challenges for the Ca Dong People in Vietnam.’ Adding depth to the conversation, NIFAM’s Nguyen and co-authors discussed ‘Nutrition Interventions for Enhanced Child Health Outcomes in Hanoi, Vietnam.’
Tropentag 2023 was an enriching experience, providing a platform for Hortibonn to contribute meaningfully to the discourse on the future of equitable food systems.
