The annual meeting of the ARS AfricaE project took place from the 4th until the 6th of December at the University of Venda in Limpopo, South Africa. This was also the final concluding meeting of the ARS AfricaE project, with the main programme of the first day comprising final reports and project wrap-up from the South African and German project partners. Following the scientific presentations, we focused on planning a follow-up project based on the achievements of ARS AfricaE and novel ideas and collaborations.
We were especially pleased to welcome several students and staff from the University of Venda to attend the meeting. As an important outcome, new collaborations and training opportunities were discussed.
