Theme: World Bee Day
Description
With the educational intention of raising awareness about the importance of preserving fauna and flora, the cultivation of bees (pollination), demonstrating that the maintenance of biodiversity, food production and human life need to be taken care of, the project was developed for collective multiplication of knowledge about the subject.
The project favored learning in a participatory, collective and fun way, exploring the environments and getting to know everything about bees, through bee farming, the children learned about their habitat, reproduction and actions in the environment, after all, they are the ones who are related to the survival of many plant species, being fundamental for increasing agricultural productivity and for the sustenance of species (birds and mammals) that feed on fruits and seeds through pollination, around 80% of plants reproduce.
Pollinators also contribute directly to medicines, biofuels, fibers such as cotton, flax and construction materials.
The Project meets SDG 13 – “Actions against global climate change”, its diversity guarantees that there are effective pollinators not only for current conditions, but also for future conditions. As a result of biodiversity, resilience can therefore be built into agroecosystems.
However, pollinators face major current challenges, which include intensive agriculture, pesticides and climate change. In addition to understanding the importance of bees, the activities helped children/teenagers overcome their fear of bees.
