However, the importance of nature, and particularly biodiversity, for food security, health, and climate preservation appears to be underrepresented in public discourse and is not sufficiently emphasized by healthcare professionals as an important health determinant. This workshop is based on preliminary results from an international interdisciplinary (family physicians, anthropologists and biologists) research study carried out in xxx and xxx on the perception and understanding of the links between biodiversity and health by patients and GPs.Identify communication strategies targeting patients, general practitioners, and political and educational entities regarding the interactions between biodiversity and health in family medicine.The workshop employs a participatory methodology of collective intelligence in the format of a world caf\u00e9. Participants are organized into three sub-groups and rotate between tables to engage with a specific question concerning the communication of connections between biodiversity and health. A rapporteur at each table summarizes the discussions as new groups arrive. At the conclusion of the table rotations, the synthesized insights are presented to all participants.
