Project: Biodiversity and Religion.

On Wednesday, February 23, 2023, at the Bonou Botanical Garden, located in Titikpa, the fourth educ-tour was held for the actors in the framework of this project. In this garden, participants learned a lot about the use of plants and the different compositions that can be made to cure certain diseases without going to the hospital. In the Bonou Botanical Garden there are plants that treat several diseases such as: malaria, infections, infertility, sinusitis, stomachache, diarrhea, etc...

The sacred forest management committees were present: Gbêvozoun, Gnanhouizoun, Gnanhouizoun, Soligbozoun, Lokoguédji, the leaders of the Abrahamic religions (Christianity and Islam) and endogenous religions, the members of the management committee of the Botanical Garden and the ODDB ONG team. The actors, happy and very satisfied, have initiated meetings that will take place every two weeks to share knowledge on the use of plants.
