Training the Future of the Biochar Industry
“This June, International Biochar Initiative (IBI) launched the inaugural Biochar Academy: an in-person and online learning project modeling a train-the-trainers education approach to develop a global biochar workforce.
The IBI Biochar Academy provides direct training for farmers, agriculture extension agents, policymakers, climate-smart agriculture organizational staff, climate project developers, and researchers interested in practical knowledge.
Conceptualized and organized by IBI Board Chair, Kathleen Draper, the two-week event was taught by nearly two dozen of the world’s foremost biochar experts from academia and industry.”
