African Insect Science for Food and Health (ICIPE)
Der Fokus im ICIPE liegt auf Insektenforschung. Sinnvoll, da Insekten in den Tropen (Afrikas) eine große Gefahr beispielsweise für die Nahrungsmittelproduktion darstellen. Zudem sind Insekten verantwortlich für die Verbreitung von Krankheiten und Zoonosen.
