Beehive on the roof of Applied Sciences building
On the roof of the Applied Sciences building, a beehive is supporting biodiversity on campus since 6 June. The beehive was installed on the initiative of OnderhoudsCombinatie Delft (OC1) in coordination with René Hoonhout (landscape manager at Campus Real Estate & Facility Management (CREFM)). OnderhoudsCombinatie Delft is a collaboration between Kuijpers, ULC and Hurks who jointly carry out maintenance on the Applied Sciences building.
Besides contributing to the improvement of biodiversity on the TU Delft Campus, we also want to create awareness. Making an impact can happen in many ways, often closer than you think. The honey we receive (and will distribute) from bees will help in a fun way.
Michael de Wit, Kuijpers
Naturalis Biodiversity Center monitors and researches how biodiversity is developing on campus and keeps CREFM informed of progress in the area around the southern part of campus.
