<< Background >>We emphasized the importance of apitherapy in the two-year period of the European Union project on the importance of bee products for human and animal health, which started in 2017. At the end of this project, we saw that beekeepers play a key role in the effectiveness of bee products in human and animal health. However, the main purpose of beekeepers in beekeeping is to produce honey. We have seen that beekeepers are unaware of the importance and value of propolis, bee venom, bee bread, drone larvae, except for honey and pollen.We know that beekeepers leave their hives in all kinds of environments in order to strengthen the hive and get nectar to produce honey, and they use drugs, antibiotics, etc. chemicals uncontrolled and unnecessarily.These chemicals leave residue in all bee products. In addition, it has been observed that beekeepers do not know the correct harvesting method of bee products including honey including pollen, propolis, bee venom, etc. and the storage conditions of that product until it is marketed or they do not fully apply it. Apitherapy applications, the use of bee products for human and animal health have taken their place in the field of supportive medicine in many countries. There are only more than 3000 publications about propolis in PubMed. In 2020-201, many studies were conducted in terms of the positive effect of propolis on Covid 19 (https://doi.org/10.1007/s13205-020-02619-1 and Giovanna Giovinazzo et al 2020…). In some countries, propolis has taken its place as a medicine. However, when bee hives are left near asphalt, close to settlements, bees collect asphalt, paint, etc. sticky substances as propolis. Also, beekeepers do not use traps to collect propolis in hives. Generally, beekeepers collect the propolis, which is attached to the inside and sides of the hive, by scraping it for hive cleaning. It has been observed that products such as propolis, bee bread, honey, which contain residues such as medicine, will do more harm than good by using them in the market for apitherapy. The use of honey with chemical residues in wound healing, the use of bee and bee larvae affected by environmental pollution, the use of pollen that has lost its volatile phenological compounds due to sun drying, etc. will do more harm than good.Demand for bee products for apitherapy will increase day by day. For these reasons, it has been observed that it is necessary to provide training to beekeepers, to produce quality natural bee products, to create certified and controlled raw materials for apitherapy. In the coming years, other bee products rather than honey sales will bring higher income to beekeepers. Therefore it will be IMPORTANT to produce other bee products. For human and animal health and a healthy environment, it is important to teach the production of apitherapy products at certain standards from production to market. It is also important to raise awareness of relevant lawmakers, relevant organizations and consumers on this issue. Especially not harming nature as much as possible, not using pesticides and other pesticides, or proper practices will directly affect human and animal health positively. For these reasons, this project has been presented to complete a major deficiency on the subject.<< Objectives >>Apitherapy, the treatment with bee and bee products, is getting more and more prevalent globally. While many bee products are used as drugs in some developed European countries, such as Germany and Italy, they are used as complementary treatment materials in some others. Apitherapy treatment is supported by the Ministry of Health in Turkey and doctor who have apitherapy course certificates are allowed to use apitherapy in their treatment. Bee products used in apitherapy are produced by beekeepers. Focusing on only honey production, beekeepers have been trying everything correct or incorrect in order to increase their honey production for economic reasons. Unless the beekeepers make their productions accurately, healthily and consciously, usage of these products for both human and animal health will bring harm rather than benefit. On the other hand, beekeepers who make their production consciously and accurately and doing the marketing accurately as well will be natural medicine producers contributing to human and animal health and will earn more at the same time. Beekeeping done with incorrect and unaware applications leads to drug and antibiotic remnants in bee and bee products. Since other pollutants related with insanitarypesticides and other environmental effects such as drugs and antibiotics, chemical remnants, radiation, etc. are not taken into account and since they are not produced at certain standards, the usage of bee and bee products (bee venom, honey, pollen, propolis, bee larvae, bee bread, etc.) in apitherapy will be risky. Due to these vital reasons, beekeepers must be raised awareness, informed and trained. Beekeepers play the key role in the approval of bee products, accepted as medicins in many European countries, at scientific and legal standards as useful remedies for treatments. It must be provided that beekeepers producing certified apitherapy products will appear in a very short time. The main aim of this project is to equip beekeepers first with the awareness of apitherapy reality and then to provide training programs for them to be able to produce bee products that will be extremely significant for themselves and for their countries under convenient conditions consciously and according to certain sanitary and standardized conditions. Another aim of this project is to raise the awareness in the humans who are tied to agricultural activities from producers to consumers for the must to produce, to store and to market the products used in apitherapy according to certain standards.<< Implementation >>*Four transnational meetings will be held in the project. In these meetings; work flow, joint decision making, brainstorming, past and future work packages, task and job distribution planning and control will be provided. outcomes and courses of the project will be planned in accordance with Turkey and the European beekeepers.*At the beginning and at the end of the project, at least 100 surveys will be conducted in each country with the target audience and relevant people, and will be made into reports.*Each country will hold events meeting as part of the dissemination in the last year of the project.*The meetings to be held within the scope of the project will be held face to face, remotely digitally or in combination according to the conditions of the day.*Each country and partner will make project promotion and event announcements from the beginning to the end of the project through digital and printed news sources, social media, facebook, whatsApp instagram, etc.* Each partner will hold an informative meeting at least once a year to ensure the participation of beekeepers, academics, agricultural engineers, veterinarians, doctors, students, relevant associations and ministry staff.*At the end of the project in coordination with beekeepers associations, a face-to-face training meeting will be held for beekeepers, and those who do not participate will participate remotely via the internet.*Training portals and training materials created will be implemented as a plot application in AYDIN(TR), ÇANAKKALE(TR) and WROCLAW (PL) Beekeepers' unions, if there are deficiencies, they will be completed and shared with partner country unions. This portal will be shared with the union of every country that wants.*A report will be sent to the relevant ministries to ensure certified production for the production of bee products for apitherapy, and to ensure packaging and storage conditions in production. The outputs of this project can be listed as :*Training modules will be prepared by creating androgojic methodology plan *MEDI-BEEB e-learning portal will be created. This portal will contain all educational training materials.*Training and education modules will be created and the entire training system will be planned according to these modulars.*European MEDI-BEEB book will be created,*LTT system on ICT will be created, *An educational visual vido series will be prepared, *An application will be created for all beekeepers to access the internet from any open location.This application will be able to support expert help. All outputs will be in English and in all partner languages and will be open to everyone. with this project, • to inform andorient the other groups rather than beekeepers, the ones who make agricultural production, who supervise this production, chambers, sanitarians, policy and decision makers, about the importance of the issue and to emphasize the great significance of the bee products and beekeepers • to flashlight the importance of bees and beekeepers not only for treatment purposes, but also for a healthy life and for nutrition in human life, • to encourage beekeepers union to design and conduct activities for a sustainable beekeeping and to raise awareness for the importance of beekeeping for human health, environment and life primarily in beekeepers and to motivate them to give training courses to their members with the outputs of the project after the project lifetime is completed, • to create a public opinion towards certain standards in Turkey, in Europe and in the world for certified production from the production stage till marketing points and to develop the present standards, • to orient the decision maker institutions with advices, proposals and case reports at the end of the project lifetime for the need of programs to create “certified beekeepers” who will make production particularly for apitherapy, Everyone who uses bee products should prefer certified bee products according to the standards<< Results >>At the end of the project and the project impact will be effective in the realization of:Awareness that bee is an indicator in determining environmental health, human health and the health status of other creatures,To ensure that beekeepers can produce all bee products, including honey, with the correct production and storage methods in a way that preserves their effects,The ministry of agriculture and the ministries of health of the state should bring a certificate requirement for beekeepers who will produce bee products for human and animal health. These beekeepers should be provided with training and the production stages of bee products should be supervised. Ensuring that healthcare professionals and consumers are sensitive about this issue,Allocation of private areas where there is no environmental pollution for beekeepers who will produce products for apitherapy,Beekeepers who can produce certified apitherapy products should be created It should be ensured that apitherapy products are made under supervision from production to the market. Another purpose of this project is to create awareness that farmers engaged in agricultural activities and people in other production branches do not use pesticides and other chemical wastes and that protection of environmental health means protecting their own health. The projects to be carried out in every field for the protection of environmental health and the health of humans and other living things are important. It should not be forgotten that the world is a village with covid19, and the environmental and health problems of the countries of the world can be the problems of all humanity.
