Rapid urbanisation is a relentless force driving change on a planetary scale. By 2050, the UN projects that 68% of humanity will live in urban areas, which are, for the most part, biodiversity wastelands. Unless we can change the way our cities are designed, urban sprawl will consume the ecosystems on which life itself depends.

We believe that when bees thrive, we survive.

World Bee City© seeks to regenerate cities by harmonising landscapes.  It is a global initiative placing bees and wild pollinators at the heart of urban landscapes, erasing the distinction between city and nature that has driven so much of urban development over the past decades.

With a focus on climate change adaptation policies, we seek to collaborate with forward-thinking communities and municipalities around the world to develop regeneration plans, programmes and projects that place pollinators at the heart of cities and urban planning.

Cities are complex ecosystems that can be nurtured back to health. Using sophisticated remote monitoring of bees and their local environments, we collect and analyse real-time bee data as a way of measuring the wellbeing of a city and finding sustainable solutions to the problems all its inhabitants face.
