Round table "Bees World Day"

The World Bee Day is celebrated on 20 May, established in 2017 with a United Nations Resolution, to raise public awareness and political decision-makers about the importance of these insects, fundamental for the ecosystems balance and food security, and therefore on the need to remove hundreds of thousands of species of bees and other pollinators from the threat of extinction to which they are subjected.
