REGIONAL BIOCHAR GROUPS

REGIONAL BIOCHAR GROUPS

Regional Biochar groups help support local biochar research and projects applicable to that geographical area. These regional groups often hold conferences and meetings, provide updates on regional biochar projects to their members, undertake projects such as field tests and biochar production, advocate for policy on the local and regional levels, write and publish reports, and provide a network of people all working in a similar geographic area.

IBI is interested in showcasing the activities of the many national and regional biochar groups that are forming. We are looking for information in the native language of your group–your information does not need to be in English.

IBI does not have formal agreements with any regional biochar group.
