- **Event Name**: Understanding the Insect Apocalypse
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 10 Jun, 2026 at 08:00 am (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: Many insect populations around the world are in steep decline, with serious implications for ecosystems, food production and human wellbeing. While the health of Tasmania’s insect populations remains largely unmeasured, the same pressures driving global losses, including climate change, habitat disruption and industrial agriculture, are already at play here.

Discover the science behind the so‑called insect apocalypse: what’s happening to insect populations, why it matters, and how we can respond. Bringing together leading Tasmanian experts in entomology, ecology and biodiversity, this conversation spans current research, species knowledge, and the real‑world challenges of conservation and land management.

Whether we swat them, study them or simply marvel at them, insects shape our food systems, environments and imaginations. Understanding their decline isn’t just about saving insects. It’s about safeguarding the intricate web of life that sustains us all.
