accelerates climate change. The challenges of pollinator and biodiversity decline are complex, inter-related and poorly understood, with serious implications for global food security, the environment, and human wellbeing. Just as alarming is the fact that there are no effective policies in place and researchers have not yet developed any means of assessing drivers and risks at national or regional scale. Worse, there is little or no understanding of interactions between the varying multiple causes and drivers of pollinator declines. Sabiha Malik founded The World Bee Project in 2014 to gain understanding of conditions across different ecosystems at regional and national levels by ‘listening to bees’, relying on Artificial Intelligence enabled systems and computational techniques to gain better understanding of the health of bees and the health of their environments. The outcome is the World Hive Network, a unique, ground-breaking solution to connect the world’s beehives via a single global network of monitored hives. lazioni di impollinatori diminuiscono, anche la biodiversità (la diversità biologica della vita sulla Terra) diminuisce e il cambiamento climatico accelera. Le sfide dell'impollinazione e del declino della biodiversità sono complesse, interconnesse e poco comprese, con gravi implicazioni per la sicurezza alimentare globale, l'ambiente e il benessere umano. Altrettanto allarmante è il fatto che non vi siano politiche efficaci in atto e che i ricercatori non abbiano ancora sviluppato alcun mezzo per valutare fattori trainanti e rischi su scala nazionale o regionale. Peggio ancora, c'è poca o nessuna comprensione delle interazioni tra le diverse cause e fattori che determinano il declino degli impollinatori. Sabiha Malik ha fondato il World Bee Project nel 2014 per comprendere le condizioni dei diversi ecosistemi a livello regionale e nazionale "ascoltando le api", facendo affidamento su sistemi di intelligenza artificiale e tecniche computazionali per ottenere una migliore comprensione della salute delle api e dei loro ambienti. Il risultato è il World Hive Network, una soluzione unica e innovativa per colle-

The network, as well as directly safeguarding bees, harnesses the power of bee-derived intelligence for solutions to interconnected issues of biodiversity, climate change, food security and human wellbeing. As humanity stands at the brink of disaster, The World Bee Project is also pioneering socially conscious environmental programs to create new livelihoods and improve production of honey and crop yields – sensor technology-enabled Precision Apiculture for vulnerable women living in conflict conditions and Precision Pollination services for smallholding family farmers. Today, the global value of pollination is estimated to be worth at least $577 billion a year, although – as the great biologist E.O. Wilson says – “this is a meaningless calculation because without (pollinating) insects the environment would collapse into chaos and billions would starve”. The World Bee Project is inviting corporations to make the uniquely pioneering World Bee Project programs the beneficiary of their Environmental Social Governance (ESG), or Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitments.

La rete, oltre a salvaguardare direttamente le api, sfrutta la potenza dell'intelligenza derivata dalle api per trovare soluzioni alle questioni interconnesse di biodiversità, cambiamento climatico, sicurezza alimentare e benessere umano. Mentre l'umanità è sull'orlo del disastro, il World Bee Project sta aprendo la strada a programmi ambientali socialmente consapevoli per creare nuovi mezzi di sussistenza e migliorare la produzione di miele e raccolti: l'apicoltura di precisione basata su sensori tecnologici per le donne vulnerabili che vivono in condizioni di conflitto e i servizi di impollinazione di precisione per i piccoli agricoltori familiari. Oggi si stima che il valore globale dell'impollinazione sia pari ad almeno 577 miliardi di dollari l'anno, anche se, come afferma il grande biologo E.O. Wilson "questo è un calcolo senza senso perché senza gli insetti (impollinatori) l'ambiente crollerebbe nel caos e miliardi morirebbero di fame". Il World Bee Project invita le aziende a fare dei programmi pionieristici del World Bee Project i beneficiari dei loro impegni di Governance Sociale Ambientale (ESG) o Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

A Miracle for Sport and Nature in Africa

Miracle Africa International Foundation and Sport for Nature join forces for a humanitarian project “Education through Sports” which promotes sports in African villages as a driving force for education and the construction of sports centres using recycled materials. In addition, this project will implement training models based on the respect for the environment and to achieve prestigious goals for educational scholarships.
