In April, EXALT and TreesForDev are happy to welcome Karen Nobre Krull to present and discuss sustainability in the Amazon from the bottom up. Her talk focuses on experiences with regenerative agriculture and cocoa agroforestry in a deforestation frontier in the Amazon. Krull's presentation will feature comments from Ossi Ollinaho, a lecturer in Global Development Studies.
