🐝 Happy #WorldBeeDay from Jimma, Ethiopia!
Governments, UN agencies, researchers & civil society all echoed one clear message: Protect the pollinators, and they will protect us. But we can’t do it alone.🌍 global cooperation is essential! #Pollinators #Biodiversity #Agroecology

Our food security, nutrition and the health of our environment depend on 🐝 bees and 🦋 pollinators.
On this #WorldBeeDay, let’s call for global cooperation and solidarity to ensure we prioritize efforts to protect these tiny but incredible #FoodHeroes.
#DYK | Over 200,000 animal species are pollinators, including 20,000 bee species!
Their work supports ecosystems, food production & biodiversity. Let’s protect them!
