Biodiversity Day Activities
As the world continues to grapple with the pandemic, Biodiversity Day will be celebrated mainly online. You are in the best position to know what awareness-raising campaigns and calls to action work at your level.
We encourage you to organize digital activities and events to celebrate Biodiversity Day. Take advantage of this opportunity to raise public awareness and to show how you are building a shared future for all life on Earth.
Every person can make a difference. If you are an individual, you can organize an activity in your community or at national level.
There are many fun ways to take part in Biodiversity Day. Here are some ideas for activities anyone can do virtually, individually, and more.

- Adopt any of the 22 actions or propose your own actions or lists of 22 biodiversity-related items (similar to a “Top 22”)
- Share photos/videos of your action(s) on social media with the hashtag #BiodiversityDay (available in other languages, below)
Coordinate Biodiversity Day in your country
Put together a committee or network to prepare for Biodiversity Day celebrations.
One person can make a difference! For inspiration, take a look at the video below. Thanks to Rebecka Le Moine Biodiversity Day has a dedicated website in Sweden. Please contact us for more information.
Reach out to new audiences
Contact your local media to ensure coverage of Biodiversity Day and days leading to it. Feel free to share this press release.
