POLLINATOR CHALLENGE BADGE

The Pollinator Challenge Badge is designed to help empower children and young people about the importance of pollinators for people and the planet. The badge includes a wide range of activities and ideas to stimulate learning about protecting pollinators and how to help safeguard these important friends from extinction. A set of modules has been developed to allow the badge to be used in schools, Guide and Scout groups, and other contexts.

The badge is perfect to be used around international theme days, for example World Bee Day on 20 May.

The badge was made possible with contributions from: FAO, Commission for Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, Convention on Biological Diversity, Slovenia Beekeeping Association, International Centre for Young Beekeepers, Government of the Republic of Slovakia, UNESCO, World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts and The Scout Association
