About Us

Libyan Nature Platform

The Libyan Nature Platform is the first website to establish a professional database on Libya’s biodiversity. It is technically supervised by the Edama Organization for Nature Conservation, in collaboration with a committee of experts specializing in biology and environmental sciences, and is managed technically by the Libyan Spider Company. The platform aims to collect available information, filter and simplify it, and then publish it in a clear electronic format accessible to everyone, making it easier to access locally and internationally.

Passion for Nature and National Responsibility

The passion for nature and national responsibility drove the Libya Nature Platform team to take on the challenge of creating Libya’s biodiversity database and the accompanying electronic library. Amid the severe shortage of available electronic data on Libya’s biodiversity, the team provided a space for specialists, enthusiasts, and civil society activists to participate in building the national resource they had long sought online. The team aims to share knowledge and information with everyone, without restrictions or conditions.

An Ambitious Vision for Environmental Awareness

The Libyan Nature Platform team aspires to complete the initial database to include all categories of living organisms in Libya and their associated research, making it the first comprehensive reference reflecting the country’s rich biodiversity. This project contributes to raising awareness among society, children, and families about the diverse group of living organisms that grow and interact with each other in our homeland. Additionally, the platform showcases to the world the richness of species and ecosystems in our region, serving as a vital contribution to understanding and preserving biodiversity and ecological systems.
