Worker Bees Africa is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) dedicated to the conservation of pollinators, particularly bees, and their habitats. We empower communities through sustainable beekeeping initiatives, education, and advocacy to create a harmonious relationship between humans and pollinators.

Pollinators, such as bees, butterflies, and birds, play a vital role in ecosystems by helping plants reproduce. They are essential for food production, biodiversity, and maintaining healthy ecosystems. Without pollinators, many crops and wild plants would not survive, threatening food security and environmental balance.

We offer three core services:

  • Education & Awareness: Programs and resources to teach about pollinators and their conservation.

  • Community Initiatives: Sustainable beekeeping projects and training to empower communities.

  • Advocacy: Policy engagement and public campaigns to protect pollinators and their habitats.

You can get involved by:

  • Participating in our workshops and educational programs.

  • Supporting our community beekeeping projects.

  • Volunteering or donating to our cause.

  • Spreading awareness about pollinator conservation in your community.

Beekeeping provides communities with a sustainable source of income through the sale of honey, beeswax, and other hive products. It also promotes environmental conservation by encouraging pollinator-friendly practices and habitat restoration.

The main threats include habitat loss, pesticide use, climate change, and diseases. These factors reduce pollinator populations, disrupting ecosystems and food production.

We engage with policymakers, provide research-based recommendations, and advocate for laws and regulations that protect pollinators. We also collaborate with other organizations to amplify our impact on a national and global scale.

Yes, we support and conduct research on pollinator health, habitat requirements, and sustainable practices. Our findings inform our programs and advocacy efforts to ensure evidence-based solutions.
