On October 10, 2026, the National University of Comahue (UNCo) awarded certificates to the second cohort of a diploma program that integrates scientific knowledge with the practical experience of beekeepers from Río Negro, Neuquén, and Chubut. Another group will complete their practical training next spring and summer after last season's wildfires prevented it.

Eleven students received diplomas for the Diploma in Sustainable Beekeeping and Pollination, a UNCo initiative aimed at strengthening apiculture and supporting biodiversity conservation in Norpatagonia. The ceremony took place at the Biodiversity and Environment Research Institute (INIBIOMA), jointly managed by CONICET and UNCo, with university officials, faculty, and students attending.
