The Nobel Peace Prize goes to all members of the IPCC group, including Dr. Tabo Ramadjita.


Dr. Tabo Ramadjita is a scientist at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and is presently the Regional Deputy Director for the West and Central Africa region, and he is based in Niger. Tabo has also been a member of the IPCC since 2004. He is one of the Lead Authors for the chapter on Africa which is one of the 20 chapters covered in the IPCC Working Group II (WG II) Fourth Assessment Report.


Since 2004, Dr. Tabo Ramadjita has attended several IPCC WG II Group writing meetings in Vienna, Austria; Cairns, Australia; Merida, Mexico; Cape Town, South Africa and Cairo, Egypt. Dr. Tabo Ramadjita is a native of Chad, and also an active member of “Barh Koh Environment and Sustainable Development Aid (Barh Koh ESDA)”, a grassroots environmental organization based right here in Toronto which has recently gained support from Scotia Bank, Abba Community Fellowship, the Ontario Diabetes Foundation, GE Gas & Oil, RBC and many more.


Tabo is not only the first ICRISAT scientist to win this prestigious award, but he is also the first Chadian and the first scientist from Central Africa to win the Nobel Peace Prize for his work on the environment.


Barh Koh ESDA is very proud to have Tabo Ramadjita as one of its active members, and we congratulate him for being a Laureate of the Nobel Peace Prize as a member of the IPCC.


This is an outstanding achievement and a great honor to Tabo Ramadjta in particular and to ICRISAT, the IPCC, his homeland Chad, and the entire continent of Africa.



!! CONGRATULATIONS, Dr. TABO RAMADJITA !!
