About
Hidden Universe: Biodiversity
HUB is a pioneering initiative grounded in a core belief: the future of life on Earth depends on understanding and protecting biodiversity in all its forms. This includes not only the species and ecosystems we already know, but also the vast "dark biodiversity"—species, ecosystems, and interactions that remain largely undiscovered and poorly understood.
It embodies tangible, on-the-ground biodiversity research and conservation efforts while also serving as the public-facing identity of the Antonelli Foundations for Biodiversity Research and Conservation.
Join us on an adventure to uncover the hidden world thriving within a single fig tree in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest.
