Experts Campaign for Local Biotechnology Curriculum With an Eye on Climate Change

Experts have proposed changes in the biotechnology curriculum to reflect the African way of life, politics and social cultural norms in bid to boost acceptance.

Miriam Kinyua, FSBA co-ordinator, told the Business Daily that the current curriculum did not address food security and biotechnology in its entirety.
