Bees and biodiversity: together to stop pollinating insects decline and protect biodiversity

Survival of over 80% of plants species depends directly on pollinating insects, and most particularly on bees. Honey bee colony losses that are being observed worldwide are therefore raising great ecological and economic concerns. The goal of the project is therefore to work together with local and European partners to develop a common strategy aiming at protecting pollinating insects and biodiversity.
