Our food
Our health
Our animals
Our environment
... are all connected—at the root of it: PLANTS.
But #PlantHealth is at risk from pests, diseases and climate change.
We must lead the way with science and global action.
When we protect plants, we protect #OneHealth and life.
🎧 What if tracking biodiversity was like mixing music?
In #RESTOREID, we use sound to study restored landscapes. Check out our latest blog by

📢 A Call to Action: Restore for Health
🌱 Invest in nature-based solutions to protect maternal and newborn health.
🔬 Support research that explores the health impacts of biodiversity loss.
🤝 Collaborate across sectors for a One Health approach.

🦠 Restoration & Disease Prevention
Healthy forests support mosquito-regulating species, reducing malaria risks.
Restored wetlands improve water quality, preventing diarrheal diseases that are dangerous for newborns. Maintaining biodiversity reduces rodent-borne diseases like Lassa fever.
🌱 Biodiversity Loss & Disease Risk
Deforestation and habitat destruction increase human-wildlife interactions, raising the risk of zoonotic diseases. Many of these diseases, like #Malaria, #Zika, and #LassaFever, pose severe risks to pregnant women and their babies.
🌍🩺 Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures 🩺🌍
Every year, nearly 300,000 women die due to pregnancy-related causes, and 2 million newborns don’t survive their first month. How does ecosystem restoration play a role in maternal and newborn health? 🤔
