Home > Full program > Biodiversity loss and pandemic emergence
Introduction
For several hundred years now, humanity has been hit hard by pandemics that have been more or less deadly. At their origins, we very regularly find virus vectors such as insects, bats, rodents, primates... The spread of zoonoses is at the heart of the problems. Who hasn’t heard of the Pangolin that would be responsible for the Covid-19 global pandemic?
The program
Develop your projects, create your business...
The GENEVA FORUM invites you to propose your solutions in this field.
In spite of the involvement of biodiversity in the emergence of pandemics, human activities remain above all the main causes, deforestation is a very good example. Indeed, human activities undeniably lead to an increasingly close contact with wildlife.
The stakes are high, how can we preserve a biodiversity that has been neglected by man and is the cause of such disasters? The objective is clear: to propose solutions to halt the loss of biodiversity while avoiding the emergence of a pandemic.
These solutions can be :
- Protecting the existence of current virus vectors (mosquitoes, bats, etc.) to prevent these viruses from changing vector
- Limit areas where wildlife and humans can live together
- Raise awareness on certain human practices
In this dynamic, we are looking for people with proposals that respond to this problem in order to implement effective actions
Suggest a solution !
If you wish, you can present, alone or with others, your proposals to the UN and you will be accompanied in the creation and development of activities based on these proposals.
