One of the most important identified needs and priorities in the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan is Awareness creation and improvement of the ways and methods of such activities in the country. Ethiopia has made significant efforts in areas of Biodiversity conservation in the past Millennia. As a result a significant number of food, feed and forest crops were conserved in the main genebank as well as in field and community genebanks. Research and Educational institutions have also contributed their utmost effort in all activities of biodiversity conservation, and their effort is worth-mentioning. Hence, information on Agriculture, biodiversity and Environment has been generated in different institutions following those efforts. Accordingly, this Online Newsletter was intiated to make the information easily available to users such as universities and research institutions in the country.

Finally, we strongly believe your contribution in areas of Agriculture, Biodiversity, Environment, invasive species as well as relevant issues will make our newsletter informative. The newsletter will be published biannually online as well as selected issues will be published in hardcopies once in a year.

Read the submission guideline and submit your article using the online submission form. We appreciate your unreserved effort in contributing your research or study results in biodiversity conservation.
