Presentation of the Oscar and the Certificate that goes with it.
We all from The World Vegetable Center have reason to be proud. Not the least of us, Dr Barthelemy Boni Yarou, currently a research assistant at the World Vegetable Center’s WCA regional office in Benin, has been singled out from a select group of researchers for his research expertise, leadership and contributions to Africa’s emergence.
Dr Barthelemy Boni Yarou works in component 3 of the SafeVeg project. He is a very self-effacing and somewhat taciturn man, a brilliant entomology researcher who devotes his time to studying and understanding the behaviour of pests’ behaviour here and abroad.
Let’s congratulate and Celebrate our talents!
