The Combatting Arthropod Pests for better Health, Food and Climate Resilience (CAP-Africa), an initiative supported by the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad), was implemented by icipe from July 2018 – June 2023 in Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda.
icipe continues to solidify its global eminence with increasing awards and recognitions, including three recent international honours accorded to two senior staff members of the Centre
The International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (icipe) is globally distinct, being the only research institute working primarily on insects and other arthropods. icipe is also the sole institution that combines food security, human health, animal health and environment health.
