On May 22, 1992, the wording of the Convention on Biological Diversity was taken on by the United Nations at a meeting in Nairobi, Kenya. Since 2001, the International Day for Biological Diversity is eminent every year on the birthday of this date

Hold a festivity of the work being completed by neighbourhood farmers to preserve biodiversity. Prepare for an episode for local farmers to approach and talk to the society about their biodiversity preservation labours from preserving heirloom crops to keeping stands of native bush and trees to assist inhabitant animals and plants flourish amidst the agriculture. Offer awards to the farmers from neighbourhood members to express thank to them for their time and efforts in preserve biodiversity.

    Hold a quiz night to increase money for neighbourhood biodiversity re-establishment schemes. Decide a region of the neighbourhood surroundings that calls for a reinstatement, for example a stand of local trees, a river region, a lake, an area that is a habitat to a atypical species and aim at it for reinstatement and preservation. Promote the quiz night extensively in the neighbourhood and let individuals be acquainted with the motive at the back of it. Sell tickets of the occasion to raise funds and request for contributions of environmentally thoughtful prizes. Create biodiversity connected questions for the quiz night, for example questions about neighbourhood wildlife, trees, plants, ecosystems etc. Dish up food sourced in the neighbourhood for food and drink or request people to bring a plate of home cooked foodstuff.

    Hold a tree planting event. Ask the local government or legislative senate to be present at and to help source local trees for the occasion.
