May22 is International Day for Biodiversity

The United Nations General Assembly has proclaimed May 22 the International Day for Biodiversity In 2000.

The aim of celebrating this day around the world is to raise awareness about environmental issues in society.

The message of International  Day for Biodiversity 2023 is ‘’From agreement to action: build back biodiversity." 

In order to increase knowledge about biodiversity, students were given a study tour at the National Botanical Garden of Georgia.

The young people learned about the history of the establishment of the botanical garden, its activities, and the principles of creating plant collections. Information was received about the species in the garden and the rules of their care.

The educational tour related to International Biodiversity Day was organised by EIEC.
