Dealing with environmental and economic challenges for a sustainable future will require the development and application of new technologies. Green-Bio Science is uniquely positioned to use environmentally-friendly solutions as an alternative to traditional agriculture, horticulture, and animal breeding processes. Green-Bio Science greatly contributes to reducing CO2 emissions and climate change impacts on food security with the aims to improve agricultural productivity and resource use.
The Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) supports building and operating capacity enhancement program in science and technology for higher education. As part of its support, KOICA, IPB University, and Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology have agreed to launch a project, titled, “Capacity Building for the Center for Agriculture and Bioscience of IPB University in Indonesia,” which is to be implemented in the years of 2022-2028. The project seeks to foster research performance by strengthening R&D capacity in the fields of agriculture and bioscience; to provide a high-quality education service by strengthening the capacity of faculty members; and to promote industry-academia cooperation through exchange program, joint research, and green-bio forums.
