Let’s explore how many animals, plants, flowers, are around us. The more we have in one place, the better!
If you find a lot of different species in one space, you found BIODIVERSITY!

On Earth, there are many different ecosystems
They are like a team, all helping to keep The Jungle, nice and healthy, big teams of species make this home a fantastic one.
There are different types of homes in our planet, can you guess the name of the home for this group of species?
Take a look at this team, living in a different type of home. This place has tall trees, wildflowers, rivers. Sometimes we visit this natural home trough trails. Can you guess the name of this home?
Do you think these species are connected?
YES, they are! And the more connections you can find, the better it is for their home, for humans and for the planet.

Every HOME in nature have their unique teams of animals and plants, but they also have their own special weather. Some of them are dry, others are really wet, this changes the type of plants that grow in these places.
In the next activity we invite you to compare different HOMES. These HOMES are also called ECOSYSTEMS.
Remember, more living things in one place makes a better planet for all. Bigger teams build better ecosystems giving the planet more natural gifts.

Aprender a Proteger la Biodiversidad
Este es un video que muestra la biodiversidad por medio de la educación para el desarrollo sostenible. Su propósito es movilizar a docentes, alumnos y científicos a pensar sobre los desafíos de la biodiversidad y su interdependencia con las problemáticas globales del desarrollo sostenible.
BIODIVERSIDAD
Cuando hablamos de BIODIVERSIDAD nos referimos a las múltiples y diversas formas como se manifiesta la vida en la tierra, a la variedad de plantas, animales, hongos y microorganismos, a sus diferencias genéticas y a las diferentes maneras como estos interactúan entre sí.
La importancia de la Biodiversidad

¿POR QUÉ ES TAN IMPORTANTE SU SONSERVACIÓN?:
La biodiversidad o diversidad biológica es la variedad de formas de vida en el planeta, incluyendo los ecosistemas terrestres, marinos y los complejos ecológicos de los que forman parte, más allá de la diversidad dentro de cada especie, entre las especies y los ecosistemas.

The best way to help the artist in this category is by talking about what attracts their attention most about Biodiversity. Help them to digest and understand the information by sharing examples. One of the best ways to promote the preservation of nature is through love and appreciation for it.

Participants
Winners 2019
We have witnessed the growth of participating children, both in age and maturity, by examining how these themes are created and reflected in the unbound inspiration found in their works of art. Their creativeness in focusing on the importance of cleaning our world has not only taught them how to care and love the environment but has also allowed all of us to learn so much from their young imaginative minds.
