Slovenia proposed that the United Nations (UN) proclaim 20 May as World Bee Day. On 20 December 2017, following three years of international efforts, the UN Member States unanimously approved Slovenia’s proposal and 20 May was proclaimed World Bee Day.

The Government of the Republic of Slovenia is aware of the severity of international developments and their impact on the domestic environment. To this end, it is drafting a comprehensive package of mitigation and target-oriented measures regarding high food and energy prices in cooperation with key stakeholders.
