What is UN World Bee Day?
WBD is a day to raise awareness on the essential role bees and other pollinators play in keeping people and the planet healthy. This day provides an opportunity for us to promote actions that will:
Protect and enhance pollinators and their habitats, improving their abundance and diversity.
Support the sustainable development of beekeeping, which is successfully alleviating poverty through Bees Abroad projects across the world.

United Nations sustainable goals and how Bees Abroad meets them
Projects are for groups in the poorest rural communities in East and West Africa
Household nutrition is improved. Crop yields are increased by improved honey bee pollination.
Income from the sale of honey is used to buy medicines. Honey and other hive products themselves have medicinal uses
Participants learn tailoring to make bee suits & carpentry to make bee hives. Income from honey is used to pay school fees
Choose to support an all women group. Historically beekeeping was a male preserve. Beekeeping provides women with their own source of income to spend as they choose
Sale of honey increases household income by 20%. Income is sustainable. Income from the sale of honey is invested in further income generating activities
New sources of nectar are planted for bees to forage Beekeepers encourage local conservation. We only use locally sourced wood for hives.
