    South Africa has an incredible floral heritage that is characterized by high levels of species richness and endemism. Many of these plants are exploited locally as traditional medicines and the diverse ethno-cultural utilisation is thus encouraging entry of new products into global markets based on South African endemics. The integration of local knowledges into the study of medicinal plants of South Africa is important for its commercialization in the bioeconomy but this stems from a history associated with South Africa’s past. There are thus unique opportunities that are presented by interfacing various biotechnologies to study medicinal plants of South Africa. Using specific examples from medicinal plants that occur in the greater Cape Floristic Region, various studies are thus presented and summarized. Mechanisms of cooperation that lead to beneficiation of Indigenous knowledge holders is central to the development of the natural products sector in South Africa. Lessons learnt from the people-plant intersection are incorporated into this lecture. Event Speaker Nokwanda Makunga, Professor of Botany and Zoology at Stellenbosch University Event Information Free and open to the public; registration required.

    Cohosted by the Policy and Planning Committee (PPC) and the Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty Advancement (OVPFA) Tuesday, March 3rd, 12-1pm, 523 Butler Library In the rush of the semester, it’s rare that we get a moment to see and hear one another. The PPC and OVPFA invite you to join colleagues for open conversations about the complexities of teaching and learning right now. What’s on your mind? What are you wrestling with in the classroom? We hope early career faculty can share and learn from their more seasoned colleagues, and that mid and late career faculty can have space to talk about what they are struggling with or where they are finding success. No expectations, no phones, no notes. Bring a friend (or two), pull up a chair, and talk to each other while breaking bread. Come share what you’re experiencing or simply enjoy the company of colleagues in open, honest conversation. Join us and help us build the spaces we all need. Lunch will be provided. Please RSVP so we might have enough food. Columbia University makes every effort to accommodate individuals with disabilities. Contact ColumbiaCTL@columbia.edu or 212.854.1692 for accommodations.
