Her answer is a powerful reminder that lasting conservation happens when communities have a real seat at the table.

For this International Day for Biodiversity, we connected with Xiomara Acevedo Navarro to get her perspective on grassroots conservation and everyday activism.

Through her incredible work with Barranquilla+20, Xiomara has been a champion for community-led ecosystem restoration, like the defense of the Ciénaga de Mallorquín, while strengthening the leadership of women and girls in climate and environmental justice.

We asked her what is one everyday action people underestimate in protecting biodiversity.

Her answer might surprise you, and it shifts the conversation from standard conservation habits to something much more systemic and community-driven.

“When did you first realise how deeply plant health affects people’s daily lives?”

For the International Day of Plant Health, our community member Nando Knodel, co-founder of CarbonConnect, reflects on the moment he truly understood the connection between plant health, livelihoods, and food security through his experiences with smallholder farmers in Zimbabwe.

🧡 Last month, the ChangemakerXchange (CXC) team came together for our annual calibration week!

As always, it was a mix of strategy, reflection, and simply being human together.

It was equal parts bonding and big-picture thinking, and this year’s conversations have sparked some important shifts in how we imagine the future of CXC and how we can best support changemakers in the years ahead.

For us, this year’s calibration week arrived at an important moment. Across many of the communities and ecosystems we work alongside, the realities facing changemakers have shifted dramatically in recent years.

We left our gathering feeling both grounded and energised for what lies ahead and we have an exciting new direction forward, which we will now get our community’s input on! More soon!
