Bees and other pollinators, such as butterflies, bats, and hummingbirds, are increasingly under threat due to human activities.
Pollination is vital for the survival of ecosystems
nearly 90% of wild flowering plant species and over 75% of food crops relying on animal pollination.
Moreover, pollinators are also crucial for food security and biodiversity conservation. To highlight their importance
the UN designated May 20 as World Bee Day. The aim is to enhance measures to protect pollinators
thereby addressing global food supply issues and reducing hunger, especially in developing countries.
World Bee Day 2024 focuses on the theme "Bee engaged with Youth," emphasizing the involvement of young people in beekeeping and pollinator conservation.
This year's campaign seeks to raise awareness among youth and other stakeholders about the critical role of pollinators in agriculture
