As part of the Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility (ICM) 2023 project, the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences at the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague had the honour of welcoming a distinguished delegation from its long-standing partner universities in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

After a period dedicated to family care, doc. Tersia Kokošková, Ph.D., is returning to the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences at CZU Prague with support from the Returns to CZU programme. Her three-year project, SMART Game – Sustainable Meat Science And Technology for Game Meat, will focus on sustainable production and processing of common eland meat, a promising alternative farming species for sustainable animal production systems.

When someone says they have returned from hunting dangerous animals in Africa, most of us imagine lions, leopards, buffaloes, or crocodiles.
