Last week we visited Norway!

We spent a few intensive days there – full of conversations, learning and amazing views.

The main points of the trip were:

– meetings with the Norwegian partner of the Project Asplan Viak and representatives of the Norwegian Institute of Nature Research (dealing with research and protection of wetlands, also in the context of climate change) and spatial management authorities, who shared their experience on wetland management and protection,

– a visit to a peat bog similar to Czerwone bog woodland, where we could see the protective measures undertaken to improve local water conditions.

We were accompanied by the project's partner – the Nature and Human Foundation – and representatives of the Nowy Targ Forest Inspectorate and the Regional Directorate for Environmental Protection in Cracow.

Working together for a green Europe
„Carpathians Unite Conservation of Orawsko-Nowotarskie Peatlands” benefits from a 849 910 EUR grant from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA Grants. The aim of the project is to protect valuable natural habitats: a raised bog and marshy forest communities in its vicinity, located in the Czerwone bog woodland nature reserve (one of the Polish Ramsar sites), as well as other wetland ecosystems in the Orawsko-Nowotarskie Peatlands complex. Co-financing from the state budget amounts to 149 984 EUR.
