Rights for Stingless Bees

They’re one of the oldest bees on our planet, and they help sustain subtropical hotspots across the world:

Stingless Bees.

These ancient pollinators are at risk — but thanks to the tireless efforts of a brave Peruvian conservation leader, the tide could soon turn in their favour: Peru may grant them legal rights, protecting these bees and their habitats from deforestation and pesticide use. If it does, the country will set a global precedent that can inspire nations across the world to follow suit.

Right now, indigenous activists are ramping up pressure for national lawmakers to approve this game changer for bees — and we can help! Let’s rally behind them with a major global call, encouraging Peru’s leaders to take this bold action for nature.

If enough of us join, we’ll work with partners at Bee:wild, local leaders, and allied celebrities, to deliver our call straight to Peru’s Congress.

This campaign is run in collaboration with Bee:wild.
