BEE PATH Good Practice logic is very simple - bees are the best indicator of healthy environment!

It will address urban environmental, biodiversity and food self-sufficiency challenges linked to urban beekeeping through integrated and participative approaches, build key stakeholders’ capacity to influence relevant policies, develop and implement efficient solutions.
