ABBC 2025
The Africa Biennial Biosciences Communication (ABBC) symposium is a multi-stakeholder, multi-disciplinary platform that explores best-bet science communication practices for unlocking the potential of advancements in science, technology, and innovation. The 6th edition (ABBC 2025) addresses a critical challenge hindering Africa's adoption of innovative biosciences, some of which play a fundamental role in the delivery of One Health (OH) solutions and building sustainable food systems. While bio-innovations offer transformative potential in improving planetary health, mitigating climate change effects and advancing health and socio-economic outcomes, disinformation remains a formidable barrier. In fact, the World Economic Forum has declared disinformation the second biggest global risk after extreme weather.
