About The Biodiversity Collective
TBC stands for The Biodiversity Collective series. TBC plays on "To Be Continued" as we believe that biodiversity must be continued for generations, and that it's also not just something for experts/researchers to understand. But the learnings must continue for everyone because biodiversity is the bedrock of society!

☕The Biodiversity Kopitiam: Sip & Learn
Kopitiam Edition: The Biodiversity Kopitiam allows attendees to Lim Kopi (Drink Coffee), and learn about various topics of biodiversity through 3 main segments.
The Biodiversity Kopitiam is hosted at a local cafe, to sip & learn about our local biodiversity, over small group coffee chats with a leading Biodiversity expert.
Topics can range from specific wildlife, research papers, nature experiences, advocacy and much more! Each TBC Kopitiam has its own unique theme.
14th October:
Conserving Biodiversity and Conservation Projects Around Us
For this edition of TBC Kopitiam, we zoom in on the incredible people and organizations who are working at the frontlines of conserving our biodiversity. When we talk about conservation, we often think of tree-planting or protecting endangered animals. But conserving biodiversity is a much broader mission, as it’s about safeguarding interconnected ecosystems, engaging local communities, influencing policy, and holding space for cultural wisdom and youth leadership.
We do a round-table kopitiam style where attendees can choose up to 2 tables to rotate around and hear a speaker share their Biodiversity Insights & Knowledge for 20 minutes at a time, and rotate to your next table.

About Foreword Coffee:
Not your average café — Foreword Coffee is where coffee meets cause.
Foreword Coffee is more than just a place to get your caffeine fix. It's a social enterprise that brews purpose into every cup. Here, you’re not just drinking ethically sourced Asian coffee but you’re supporting inclusive hiring, sustainable practices, and a radically kind business model that puts people first.
They specialize in specialty coffee sourced directly from smallholder farmers in countries like Laos, China, and Indonesia, highlighting unique Asian flavor profiles in every sip. Their drinks come with stories: of resilience, dignity, and the journey of beans from farm to cup. The space itself is cozy, minimalist, and designed for conversations that matter. It’s the perfect spot to pause, learn, and connect, just like this TBC Kopitiam session.
So come for the insects, stay for the coffee, and experience how a cup can spark change.
💡 PS: Try their Yunnan pourover or cold brew oolong — sustainably delicious!
