On a mission to improve bee health
Mission Statement
UBL acts as the global nexus for pollinator health and sustainability with a focus on bees. We seek to raise awareness of pollinators' importance to global health and wellness and to call for action to protect endangered pollinators by building a community of pollinator ambassadors through research, data collection, and habitat creation in urban and suburban communities around the world.
Vision Statement
Our values of education, inspiration, and community building guide how we approach research, community engagement, and partnerships.
Research: We conduct cutting-edge research to stabilize and improve bee health and promote this data to support pollinators and their role in global public wellness.
Community: We serve as a nexus for groups that share our mission, empowering them, sharing data, and learning and teaching from our collective experiences.
Partnerships: We work with a diverse group of partners, including universities, corporations, real estate developers, municipalities, and government organizations that are committed to improving pollinator health and global wellness.
About Us
Urban Bee Lab (UBL) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit on a mission to increase global biodiversity through technology and collective action across communities. We view bees and other pollinators as the ultimate tie that binds food security, climate change mitigation, natural disaster prevention, and ecological preservation. Pollinators also serve a major role as as a driver of business and economic growth.
UBL’s Board of Directors donates its time to community partners, advising them on various areas, including science, communications, real estate development, architecture, law, engineering, data analysis, finance, communications strategy, goal setting, reporting, and events. We conduct cutting-edge research to stabilize pollinator health, and feature our results in creative ways to maximize impact for people, planet, and profits.
