Project “Realization of Educational Eco-Tours in Protected Areas in Republic of Serbia" was implemented in a partnership with Skyrunning Serbia Association.
Project has been focused on sustainable use of protected areas in the Republic of Serbia and their popularization through organization of educational-eco activities in nature.
The project focused on raising public awareness on local and regional natural resources and their importance for social and economic development. Changing consciousness, thinking and behaviour of the public, local authorities and the business sector along with better cooperation between all these stakeholders should lead to more sustainable management of protected areas.
One of the key objectives of the Project was popularization of protected areas at local, regional, national and international level and strengthening of the moral and material responsibility of all factors of society in relation to the natural values of the forest and mountain areas in Serbia.
