Fifteen-year-old Jasmine Fraser discovered that backyard beekeeping often overlooks native Australian bees, which are superior pollinators and stingless. She champions these "unsung heroes" for crop security, encouraging people to invite them into their backyards. This easy, low-maintenance approach supports both Australia's food security and native species.

Initially perplexed by native beehives, Jasmine learned their importance for pollination, not honey. She used a TEDx platform to highlight how urban households can easily support native bees, contributing to food security and biodiversity. Learn more about TEDx at https://www.ted.com/tedx.
