This past 22 May marked the UN’s International Day for Biological Diversity, a day focused on increasing understanding and awareness of biodiversity issues that impact the world. To celebrate and to bring awareness to this important topic, Plant-for-the-Planet’s Global Board and the Global Youth Biodiversity Network co-organized a webinar which discussed “Solving Crisis: Ecosystem-based Solutions to Biodiversity Loss and Links to COVID19 Pandemic.” Throughout this programme, a diverse panel of speakers from the UN, the WHO, and Plant-for-the-Planet discussed the interconnectedness of human health and the health of our planet and highlighted different ways to get involved.
