The Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences at CZU Prague offers an educational programme for schools, Tropical and Subtropical Treasures: A Journey Towards Sustainability and the Protection of Natural Resources. The interactive programme introduces pupils to the fascinating world of useful tropical and subtropical plants and explores their importance, uses and connection to nature conservation and sustainable agriculture.

Why are tropical plants so interesting to scientists? How can their biologically active compounds contribute to the development of new medicines or more sustainable food preservation? 

Research on the future of the West African giraffe, involving scientists from the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences (FTZ), Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU Prague), has been featured by Nature as part of its selection of recent research from Africa.
