Despite their great abundance, invertebrates are largely neglected in conservation practices and perceived as pests by the public. Considering the global pollination crisis and insect loss, the threat of biological invasions, and the role of invertebrates as vector of pathogens and diseases, this project aims to raise public awareness about invertebrates as key organisms in various ecosystem functions, while highlighting the anthropogenic threats they face and practical solutions to conserve beneficial insects at the UK Sovereign Base Areas and Cyprus.
