💼 What the programme involves
Explore the unique landscape and habitat of the mud flats and contribute to the preservation of the native flora and fauna. Starting from 2010, every year there has been an ijgd group to contribute to the nature conservation works in the coastal heathland and this year is no exception. With spades and hs, you can help with the cultivation of smaller freshwater biotopes and protect the native vegetation against the displacement by non-native plants to grow very fast. Through your work you will learn a lot about the nature on the island and the world heritage sights of the mud flats. You will be instructed and guided by competent nature conservationists.
