Be Part of the Plan

The theme of IDB 2022 is "Be part of the Plan." This call to action encourages individuals and organizations to take part in protecting and conserving biodiversity.

22 Actions for Biodiversity

As part of the campaign, the UN has identified 22 actions that can be taken to support biodiversity. These actions include:

Importance of Biodiversity

Biodiversity is essential for the health of our planet. It provides us with food, water, medicine, and other resources. It also helps to regulate the climate, purify water, and control pests.

However, biodiversity is under threat from human activities, such as climate change, deforestation, and pollution. It is important to take action now to protect and conserve biodiversity for future generations.
