Wer organisiert das Projekt?

This project is organized in cooperation with the Association for the Jizera Mountains operating in the Jizera Mountains since 1999. The association runs an eco-centre in the middle of the forest where they plant trees, restore tourist infrastructure and offer educational programs drawing children and adults into the adventure of exploring nature. Currently, they are setting up a new eco-centre in Hrabetice, part of the village of Janov nad Nisou. The aim of the project is to expand the forest playground that is used by school groups and create a pool for retaining water in the landscape and modify the natural character. At this project, you will actively contribute to the achievement of UN SDG15 Life on Land.
