Movimiento APICULTURAL (MA)

El Movimiento APICULTURAL es un proyecto de difusión y mediación cultural entre: ARTE, APICULTURA, CIENCIA y MEDIO AMBIENTE.

Son los propios gestores de la cultura, los que después de un acto profundamente reflexivo y apuntando hacia el bien común, participan en el desarrollo de ideas u obras creativas, causando impacto en el universo social.

El Movimiento APICULTURAL relaciona Arte, Ciencia, Apicultura y Medio Ambiente. Promueve instrucción y genera iniciativas a partir del contacto con el tema de las abejas. Da a conocer la apicultura en la comunidad artística, científica y cultural del país, utilizando la apicultura como una llave que nos conecta íntimamente con el mundo natural y así comprender o vislumbrar, otra dimensión de contacto con el medio ambiente, una nueva forma de relacionarnos con el entorno ecológico.

A través de las obras creadas e inspiradas a partir del conocimiento de la apicultura y su relación con el medio ambiente, social y natural, se realizan una serie de actividades culturales, generando interés en el resto de la comunidad: Colegios, Universidades, Centros Culturales, etc.

El MA se ha proyectado a largo plazo, 2005-2010, pretendiendo llegar como un proyecto realizado al bicentenario.

Comenzó modestamente con las primeras convocatorias a gestores culturales, artistas y científicos que se interesen en participar de esta iniciativa.


 Unidos por un medio ambiente mejor

 El Movimiento APICULTURAL hace posible la difusión de la apicultura,  la ciencia y el cuidado del medio ambiente, a través del arte, en todas sus manifestaciones.

El MA, además de fomentar las buenas prácticas apícolas y la proliferación y resguardo de la flora nativa y toda la biodiversidad que en ella se recrea, se plantea como un movimiento interdisciplinario que busca afianzar la unión de nuestra identidad cultural con el cuidado del entorno natural inmediato, dando forma a una “imagen país” culta y respetuosa del medio ambiente.

Este movimiento cultural, toma como base una visión orgánica y sustentable de la apicultura, la ciencia y el arte. Trasciende los temas e intereses particulares y mezquinos de algún tipo de actividad, pues  su fin último es:

Tener una relación de respeto y conciencia por la biodiversidad y medio ambiente social y natural al que pertenecemos.


Se invita a UD. y su empresa, universidad o institución a participar de este movimiento de educación y difusión nacional e internacional, que une los gestores del mundo del arte y ciencia con los de la apicultura.

Synthesis of the project APICULTURAL MOVEMENT

DESCRIPTION

"Cultural agents[1] are those who, by means of their artwork, provoke an impact in the social universe."

The Apicultural Movement is an initiative whose goal is to create a relationship between Arte, Apiculture[2] and the Environment, generating interest and promoting knowledge among Chileans about the way beekeeping works and the major social and economic benefits that bees and their activities provide us.

The project’s target audiences will learn more about beekeeping and its important contribution to the natural world as they participate in the various planned activities. By visiting each of the project’s exhibitions, they will become sensitized about and learn the importance of Apiculture.

The project also aims to stimulate an increase in sales of Chilean bee products in the domestic market, thanks to greater knowledge and interest generated by the project, and in foreign markets through participation in international fairs and sustained contact with specialized press in order to project an image of Chile as a country highly privileged in production of honey.

BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION

A small insect, the honeybee, whose scientific name is Apis melífera, creates the most energetic food on the planet: honey. "The living juice," the flower’s mature nectar, the sweet substance that nurtures, as it is, in its majority, constituted of predigested sugars like fructose (40%) and glucose (35%), it can be used almost instantaneously by our organism. Besides being composed of essential vitamins and trace elements, it contains natural antibiotics that the bee provides during its preparation.

Honey is one of the bee’s most popular products, but even more abundant and sometimes ignored is the process of pollination, since the bee is one of nature’s best pollinators. Most farmers never forget about bees and their prodigious fertilization, since it is the bees’ efficient collection of pollen and nectar that fertilizes the flowers and guarantees an abundant harvest. This is why farmers say, "if there are no bees, there is no harvest."

Another of its unparalleled products in terms of complexity and completeness is royal jelly or bee’s milk. A worker bee who eats honey and pollen can live between 3 and 6 months, while a queen bee, who eats a balanced mixture of pollen, honey, and royal jelly, can live up to 7 years.

We also have the highly-valued propolis, a natural antibiotic and highly powerful anesthetic; apitoxin or venom, which is an excellent way to cure problems related to rheumatisms and is used in "apitherapy"[3] sessions; beeswax, the bee’s natural secretion which is used for constructing cells and honeycombs; and pollen, a high-quality vegetable protein.

Thus, we have a total of seven products, which are a result of bees’ natural diligence. Bees create, reproduce, and collect these products in a way, quantity, and quality that would be impossible for us.

For all of these reasons, the honeybee is one of the insects that promotes the highest degree of abundance on the planet.

For our own satisfaction, and thanks to beekeeping, we can come into contact with and benefit from the fascinating world of honeybees. Without beekeeping and beekeepers, bees would clearly be at risk of extinction given the current environmental conditions, and this would directly cause a decrease in our quality of life.

Starting in 1992, the Varroa disease arrived in Chile, crossing natural barriers as a result of irresponsible transhumances. Varroa is a mite that has decimated more than 50% of the country’s beehives. This situation, along with the indiscriminate depredation of ecosystems that keeps honeybees from optimally generating natural immunities, and the contamination with agrochemicals, all mean that the bee’s existence depends on the care they receive from beekeepers.

GENERAL OBJECTIVES

The Apicultural Movement aims to:

  1. Create links between beekeeping activities and know-how, and the country’s artistic and cultural community to generate a space for reflection, action, and education.

  2. Provide information to the community about the products produced by bees, their properties and benefits for human health. Above all, inform the community about the highly important activities and relationships honeybees establish with their natural surroundings and with people by carrying out pollination.

  3. Help make apiculture, art and care of the environment part of the general culture of the Chilean population and project this image in foreign countries, thus creating an "image of a country" based on real content.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES

  1. Generate a union of wills, skills, and professions[4], creating a numerous and select group of active participants who, using all types of environments and disciplines, promote a heightened consciousness among citizens by providing information about apiculture and the vital importance of reestablishing the natural equilibrium that has been destroyed by an indiscriminate depredation of ecosystems.

  2. Encourage the creation of artwork by artists and cultural agents by providing them with information about beekeeping.

  3. Hold permanent and itinerant expositions with the artwork created by the Movement and open these shows to members of a varied public.[5]

  4. Design a communicational strategy[6] with a group of professionals from varied disciplines in order to evaluate and perfect Apicultural Movement’s central strategy.

  5. Accomplish as a product a multimedia itinerant module that represents us as the "image of a country" in the coming apiculture symposiums and fairs, both in Chile and abroad.

  6. Provide information to the general public about apiculture that encourages a valuation and promotion of reforestation and conservation of native flora, especially in areas where beehives will be placed.[7] Stimulate an increased interest in consuming apiculture products.[8]

PROJECT BENEFICIARIES

The Apicultural Movement will provide information, know-how, and education to the community in general, while taking into account the cultural, social, and age characteristics of each target group. Thus, we can define possible beneficiaries of this project as:

  • GRAMMAR SCHOOL COMMUNITIES: Includes teachers, students, and parents and guardians from diverse lower and middle schools around the country.

  • LOCAL COMMUNITIES: Includes urban and rural communities as organized in neighborhoods, shantytowns, municipalities, sectors, housing projects, plazas, cultural centers, etc.

  • SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS: Like for example neighborhood organizations, youth organizations, senior citizen clubs.

  • UNIVERSITY COMMUNITIES: Includes professors and students from public and private higher educational establishments around the country.

It is also important to mention that other direct beneficiaries of this project are:

  • THE BEEKEEPING COMMUNITY: Both beekeepers and their family will benefit from this project by having a real space for promoting their activities, which can certainly include sale of their products, and therefore lead to an improvement in their quality of life.

  • ARTISTS AND CULTURAL AGENTS: This group will have a space for creativity, social-artistic intervention, and retro alimentation with the public.

PROJECT’S DURATION

The Apicultural Movement is a long-term project, aware that it will take a significant amount of time to fulfill all the above-mentioned objectives. The first public exposition will be in March 2006 and the project’s stages will be carried out until 2010.

METHODOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

The Apicultural Movement bases its methodological strategy on providing information and education in a way that is playful, didactic, artistic, reflexive, and comprehensible for all types of public, since the diverse social, cultural, and age characteristics of each target group must be taken into account. In this way, special care will be taken in using appropriate language that is explicatory and friendly and that calls the public’s attention while at the same time providing information and helping it to be retained. This is how the Apicultural Movement will achieve a lasting impact in the population.

Another consideration is that the invitation for artistic creation will be opened to all creators, artists, and cultural agents who demonstrate a real commitment to the Apicultural Movement. This is how the quality of individual works and expositions in general will be maintained throughout the project’s duration.

  1. Cultural agents are those who, after a profoundly reflexive exercise that aims at a common good, participate in developing creative actions, ideas, or works.

  2. Apiculture: the art of raising honeybees and using their products.

  3. Although this includes use of all the beehive’s products.

  4. For example: publicists, musicians, designers, journalists, teachers, artists, beekeepers, etc.

  5. Schools, universities, local communities, etc.

  6. Which could, for example, become a television program, or an image that is catchy enough to enter the population’s subconscious, or a radio jingle, etc.

  7. Monocultures are a way to grow products in quantities, but not in the quality that is needed. They aren’t the most flavorful or the healthiest. Their production is linked with depredation and contamination by agrochemicals. It is necessary to understand the concept of organic as an ecological way of crop management, and as a legal resource to protect us.

  8. In the case of honey, annual per capita consumption is 80 grams.
