ABOUT BEES ABROAD 
Beekeeping can provide additional income to small communities in developing countries. A family income can be increased by 20% from the sale of honey, wax and cosmetics. Pollination is increased by around 40% which means that there are better food crops too. We teach beekeeper to beekeeper training to help people build a sustainable livelihood. Practical skills taught to young people give them a chance to work and remain their community contributing to their family income.
