Art and Awareness to Protect Biodiversity
To mark World Wildlife Day, the Eco-Bahia foundation, in collaboration with the Kids Club at Bahia Principe Riviera Maya Resort, organized the activity “Brushes for Biodiversity.”
The goal was clear: to teach children about the importance of biodiversity and the impact of our actions on the environment, using art as a tool for learning and awareness.
Under the shade of trees and in direct contact with nature, children took part in an artistic activity where they painted figures of local animals and plants.
This playful experience not only allowed them to have fun, but also helped strengthen their emotional connection with nature and understand the importance of protecting the flora and fauna that sustain the ecological balance of the region.
The event also included educational talks about regional biodiversity, highlighting the crucial role of every species in the health of ecosystems.
“We strongly believe that education is the key to conservation. When children learn about biodiversity and its importance, they develop a sense of responsibility toward the natural environment. Brushes for Biodiversity was not just a fun activity, but an opportunity to plant seeds of ecological awareness in the next generation,” said Luis Verdin, General Manager of the Eco-Bahia foundation in Mexico.
With initiatives like this, Eco-Bahia reaffirms its commitment to promoting environmental education as a cornerstone for achieving a sustainable future.
The theme of World Wildlife Day 2025, “Wildlife Conservation Funding: Investing in People and the Planet,” underscores the importance of collective efforts to protect biodiversity.
The day concluded with a reflection on how every small action can create a significant positive impact on environmental conservation, leaving a lasting impression on participating children and the community.
