Discover overseas research at the Jardin d’acclimatation in Paris
Ifremer , IRD, INRA and CIRAD are all participating in the ‘Overseas garden’ event, running from Saturday, 9 April to Sunday, 8 May (10:00 am - 7:00 pm).
“An overseas garden” is one of the featured events of the Year of Overseas France. For a one-month period, the Jardin d'acclimatation will don the colours of France's overseas départements, regions and other administrative divisions. Visitors will experience various facets of overseas France: culture, trades and crafts, economy, tourism, environment, etc.
The research facet will also be represented with a dedicated area shared by four research operators: Ifremer, IRD, INRA and CIRAD. Through events, panels and videos, this area will use a fun science approach to highlight overseas research on biological resources, sustainable development, food, agriculture and biodiversity.
