World Bee Day, celebrated annually on May 20, was established by the United Nations in 2017 to raise awareness about the vital role of bees and other pollinators in sustaining ecosystems. These insects are crucial for food security, biodiversity, and sustainable agriculture, contributing significantly to global economies and livelihoods. However, they face numerous threats, including climate change, pesticide use, and habitat loss. Slovenia, a pioneer in environmental protection, has prohibited certain harmful pesticides and launched over 300 global pollinator projects to support beekeeping, especially in war-torn regions where it aids rehabilitation efforts. Additionally, initiatives in various countries focus on empowering women and youth through beekeeping. In the Philippines, a women-led stingless bee project aims to provide sustainable income for rural households. The UN has also declared 2026 as the International Year of the Woman Farmer, highlighting women's essential role in agriculture. The ongoing Third International Forum for Action on Sustainable Beekeeping in Slovenia seeks to unite science, agriculture, and biodiversity to enhance crop production while safeguarding pollinators. As we approach the International Day for Biodiversity, the interconnectedness of biodiversity and pollinators becomes increasingly evident, emphasizing the need for global action.
