Bridging Nature and Communities

Descrierea activității

The project involves 2 volunteers with similar but slightly different profiles. Both will take part and organize several activities with the aim of spreading environmental awareness and inspiring people to get together to stay in the nature, to work for the nature and to share their traditions and cultural peculiarity. So even though both will have the chance to take part in all activities, one will be more dedicated to the management of the park site, while the other will be more engaged with the educational and touristic aspect of the park - so the first will care more for the maintenance activity, the other about the guides and lessons in the nature.
