We are soliciting potential presenters and attendees for the 8th ECHO East Africa Biennial Symposium in collaboration with Hope International Burundi, to be held in Bujumbura from the 25th - 27th February, 2025, a three day sharing event to be held at the King's Conference Center (KCC) in Bujumbura, Burundi. The event will draw participants from all across East Africa to address issues of sustainable agriculture and appropriate technologies. We prefer presentations with practical information for cross-organizational learning which may be of use to enhance farmers' knowledge, increase capacity for food & fuel & fodder production, generate income using low external inputs, not increasing land under cultivation but intensifying and using resources more efficiently, reducing waste/erosion, and enhancing the environment.
Your organization's work is well known and respected in the region, and you have been suggested as a presenter, based upon the ideas we have been discussing with the Burundi planning team. ECHO truly hopes that you might participate in this symposium to address needs, share innovations and best practices in your work.
We anticipate to host up to 150 participants, including lead farmers, extension workers, development workers, donors, government officials and others interested in rural or agricultural development including processors and others in the value chains.

ราคา
ECHO EA and Hope International Burundi will try to recover its costs fully (no profit motive!) to run the symposium by a low fee of $200 for the 3 days. This includes mid-day meals and a 2nd evening banquet on Wednesday, teas in a.m. & p.m., materials, and which covers venue costs, translation, and video-taping the sessions. It does NOT include accommodation & breakfasts, and meals for Tues & Thurs evening meals. On the Friday field trips are organized to nearby sites of special agricultural interest to those who can stay - usually about 1/2 day - for additional marginal costs ($20) to cover the costs of vehicles & lunch. ECHO and HI-B offer that spouses of paying delegates will only be charged $100 USD. We always get requests from those who cannot afford the Symposium fee. We do provide a limited number of waivers to women. Apply via email to Sophia Kasubi: skasubi@echonet.org

ECHO normally welcomes participants to bring a poster on a related theme if they wish. We provide poster guidelines with this link, and in this way, if people offer to give presentations but there may be too many, they have a means to share their message/successes/issues, or if there are "No shows" we often welcome a poster presenter to fill a possible gap.

We would be very appreciative if our contacts would also send the Symposium invitation link to professional colleagues and friends within their organization and outside, working in highland areas, in hopes that they would join us in Bujumbura, Burundi to share and learn from these presentations.
