Bees and other pollinators, such as butterflies, bats and hummingbirds, are increasingly under threat from human activities. Bees and other pollinators are essential for our existence, sustaining agriculture and biodiversity worldwide. To raise awareness of the importance of pollinators, the threats they face and their contribution to sustainable development, the UN designated 20 May as World Bee Day.
By observing World Bee Day each year, we can raise awareness on the essential role bees and other pollinators play in keeping people and the planet healthy, and on the many challenges they face today. The goal is to strengthen measures aimed at protecting bees and other pollinators, which would significantly contribute to solving problems related to the global food supply and eliminate hunger in developing countries.
