They support the country's bees and beekeepers and have also certain responsibilities (regular meetings where they talk about changes in the beekeeping practice, inform about diseases, act as a contact for club members etc...). The beekeepers join those associations and usually pay a membership fee in exchange of using the provided services. Similar organized associations exist in '''Ethiopia'''. In addition there are numerous projects aiming the improvement of the apicultural sector, but projects always have an expiring date.

		+	'''Ethiopia:''' In Ethiopa there exist three beekeeping associatons: '''Ethiopian Apiculture Board (EAB)''', '''Ethiopian Society of Apiculture Science (ESAS)''' and '''Ethiopian Honey and Beeswax Producers and Exporters Association (EHBPEA)'''. '''EAB''' was established in 2009 and it aims to improve the honey production and productivity by ensuring quality production and safety issues. The Ministry of Agriculture is the patron of '''EAB'''. <ref>Negash, B., Greiling, J. (2017). Quality Focused Apiculture Sector Value Chain Development in Ethiopia. Journal of Agricultural Science and Technology A, 7(2), 107-116.</ref> About 10 years ago, SOS-Sahal was an important beekeeping project, providing beekeeping training. <ref>Gupta, R. K., Reybroeck, W., van Veen, J. W., & Gupta, A. (2014). Beekeeping for Poverty Alleviation and Livelihood Security: Vol. 1: Technological Aspects of Beekeeping. Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands.</ref> With the support of SOS Sahel and other co-operatives (individual farmers and beekeepers), the '''Zembaba Bee Products Development''' & '''Trade Promotion Cooperative Union''' was established. This is no classical beekeeping association, but they offer training, good materials and market information, they assist members and improve methods of production and the main objective is to promote the market for honey bee products in the Amhara region. Zembaba Union also exports honey to foreign markets. Union members have to have 2 years of experience as beekeepers and they provide an agreed amount of honey to the co-operatives, which sell it to domestic markets. Afterwards, they distribute the annual profit to all the members <ref>Mekonnen, S. (2008). Increasing marketing opportunities in Amhara Region Ethiopia. Bees for Development, 86, text on website.

Projects like '''ASPIRE''' (Apiculture Scaling up Program for Income and Rural Employment) and government initiatives like '''ATA''' (Agricultural Transformation Agency) aiming also the supporting of beekeeping interests. In addition, a lot of '''organizations''' (GOs and NGOs) and '''initiatives''' offer training on beekeeping every year. Despite all the efforts, the apisector still develops '''very slowly'''. <ref>ASPIRE (2018). Apiculture Scaling up Program for Income and Rural Employment.
