EMBER-MURA-TERMÉSZET

closed

The project resulted in the on-going cooperation between local administration units, schools and civil associations of the cross-border region in preserving the biodiversity of habitats along the Mura River, on both the Hungarian and Croatian sides of the border. The goal of the project was to develop recommendations for use of the environment in the wider area of the Mura basin and its confluents (Lendva, Kerka), to implement the techniques of traditional management of flood plains, and to introduce soft tourism and bio-agriculture as a way of long-term preservation of the existing marshes and forests. The objective is to increase respect towards the river basin values, encourage their affirmation in everyday life, improve the living conditions of the local population and raise the sense of belonging to the area.
