African BioGenome Project – Genomics in the service of conservation and improvement of African biological diversity

Check out review on Africa BioGenome Project #AfricaBP in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com A pan-African effort to generate & use genome data to improve biodiversity & agriculture. africanbiogenome.org See shorturl.at/qEVU8 #conservation #biodiversity #foodsecurity #genomics #collaboration #openaccess

African savannah landscape with acacia trees, distant hills, and a cloudy sky. Text overlay reads: “Why this matters: Africa holds extraordinary biodiversity, but scaling genomics requires more than sequencing alone,” with “requires more” highlighted in yellow.

View of Earth centered on Africa from space. Text overlay lists key needs identified in the paper: stronger legal and ethical frameworks, Digital Sequence Information infrastructure, inclusion and gender equity, and fair and equitable benefit-sharing. “Highlights” is highlighted in yellow.

Congratulations to everyone involved in this publication, and to all supporting the Africa BioGenome Project 👏🌍🧬 From all those attending hands-on workshops across Africa to African experts delivering lectures, the momentum behind this effort is truly inspiring.
