Hello,
 
My name is Lauren.  Currently, I'm studying Social Perspectives on
Conservation and Biodiversity at Harvard.  I'm very interested in the
Africanization Process from a conservation perspective.  Furthermore, I want
to understand its effects for beekeepers and the general public,
particularly in Central America.
 
Next Friday, I am going to Costa Rica for 12 days and would like to focus on
this issue while there.  Can somebody on this list help me by:
 
a.) providing me with a contact, address, e-mail, telephone number of a
knowledgeable person in the subject of AHB in Costa Rica.
 
b.) providing me with a bibliographic reference of recommended articles on
this topic, particularly regarding Costa Rica, or
 
c.) giving me your own thoughts on the social effects of AHB.
 
You can e-mail it to me personally ([log in to unmask]).  Or, if you find
it interesting for the entire list, please stimulate a discussion.
 
Thank you,
 
Lauren
