    Goals / Remit

    Buglife’s aim is to stop the extinction of invertebrate species and to achieve sustainable populations of invertebrates.

    We will accomplish our aim by protecting, improving and expanding their habitats (homes) and strengthening the respect given to bug species. We will achieve this by:-

    • Mobilising, inspiring, enabling and persuading others to take action, through the development and dissemination of knowledge and values.
    • Undertaking practical conservation projects.
    • Promoting the value of invertebrates and raising awareness about the challenges to their survival.
    • Shaping the development of relevant legislation and policy.

    Communication activities

    1. Improved management of key habitats, including preventing loss and restoring and creating habitat, to enable the recovery of bug populations and to stop further local and national extinctions.

    2. Fewer key invertebrate species in decline; no preventable extinction of native species, or of globally significant populations of introduced species, in any of the UK countries

    3. Increased acknowledgement amongst decision makers and the public (particularly children):-
    • of the wonder, beauty and importance of bugs and their requirements
    • of the big issues affecting bugs and the action required to achieve positive change
    • that individuals and society should take responsibility for resolving threats to bugs

    4. Improved quantity, quality and availability of science, data and evidence directly relevant to bug conservation, including long term monitoring.

    Themes
    We will embed across our work two themes addressing urgent, topical issues that impact directly on people:

    Theme A) Tackling the Pollination Crisis

    Theme B) Securing Healthy Freshwater
