IBE joins the Biodiversity Day 2021
Biodiversity Day 2021 is being celebrated under the slogan: "We're part of the solution #ForNature".
From nature-based solutions to climate, health issues, food and water security, and sustainable livelihoods, biodiversity is the foundation upon which we can build back better.
At the Institute of Evolutionary Biology we join the #Biodiversity Day 2021 by sharing some on-going projects of our researchers which are contributing to biodiversity conservation.
The Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity announced the Biodiversity Day 2021 slogan: “We’re part of the solution”. The slogan was chosen to be a continuation of the momentum generated last year under the over-arching theme, “Our solutions are in nature”, which served as a reminder that biodiversity remains the answer to several sustainable development challenges. From nature-based solutions to climate, health issues, food and water security, and sustainable livelihoods, biodiversity is the foundation upon which we can build back better.
As the world continues to grapple with the pandemic, at IBE we want to commemorate the Biodiversity Day 2021 through an awareness-raising Social Media campaign showing some of the efforts from IBE researchers to contribute to biodiversity conservation.
