Our colleagues Lydia Mawar and Chama Theodore Ketuama participated in the Tropentag 2022 conference organized from September 14 to 16, 2022, at the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences). Tropentag is an annual international conference on research in tropical and subtropical agriculture and rural development.

Since the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic two years ago, the annual conference has been held online. This year's conference regained its splendor with the in-person participation that brought together over 600 participants from 60 countries to the additional 200 participants online. This year’s theme was “Can agroecological farming feed the world? Farmers' and academia's views”. Lydia also participated as a student reporter together with 12 international students from European Union (EU) university. The activities of student reporter were to provide information about the conference such as keynote speakers information, research innovation, and the whole series of events.
