The aim of the project is to help to stop the loss of biodiversity in the border region, focusing on the 1530* Pannonian salt marshes and grasslands, habitat type of European Community importance and the bird species that live there. The involvement of the volunteers in various nature conservation problems is important, since human activity causes most of the problems. The priority task of the project is therefore communication and dissemination of knowledge. The project supplements existing knowledge by involving volunteers, which involves three different field surveys: 1) white stork nest survey; 2) survey és electrical poles dangerous for birds; 3) survey of wetlands and their birds. Joint field actions will be organized for the professional members of the partners for the purpose of knowledge exchange, on various topics. A summary professional document is being prepared on the situation of birds in the border region.
(Expected) Results:-Involvement of volunteers into nature and bird protection actions
-Better knowledge on the situation of wid birds in the crossborder region
