Poverty reduction through biofuels
Global land-use is changing in an unprecedented way. Previously small farmers are realizing the potential in earning greater amounts of capital simply by switching to energy crop cultivation. The World Bank along with other international institutions also realizes this potential, and promotes the cultivation of biofuels as a method in combating poverty in poor regions, especially in Africa.
This Sunday, Ms. Camilla Lundberg Ney, Communication & Advocacy Officer together with Björn Lindh, Chief Communication Officer from the Swedish Cooperative Centre will discuss their latest report “With development in thought” presenting possibilities as well as challenges coupled with biofuel cultivation as a method for development and poverty reduction in under-developed countries.
