The use of genetically modified organisms in agricultural and food production is a highly debated topic. For developing countries, like Tanzania, using science and genetic engineering to manage diseases in crops is an important factor in ensuring the social and economic development of communities. That being said, public policy within developing countries is not working in favour of science.
In his presentation, Malima will draw attention to the special importance of agriculture and its impact on the livelihoods, politics, poverty and environment in Tanzania, and why the current generations of students need more knowledge on the global situation surrounding them.
