LIFE DANUBE FREE SKY PROJECT AT 12th MAVIR BIRD CONSERVATION CONFERENCE
The 12th MAVIR Bird Conservation Conference was organized by our project partner MAVIR in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture (AM), the Herman Ottó Institute (HOI), BirdLife Hungary (MME), and LIFE Danube Free Sky project. The Conference took place on the 25th of November 2021 and was held online due to the worsening pandemic situation at the time being.
More than 130 experts from various countries and organizations attended the conference. 13 interesting presentations within the theme birds' conservation and power lines were presented at the conference and representatives of the organizations that are part of our project (MAVIR, RPS, DDBRA, HEP, BSPB, BPSSS, CEZ) held together 7 presentations describing their activities, experiences, and successes within this field. You can find the presentation at this link: HERE (scroll down for the English part). The initial plan was to organize the Conference in Tata city, Hungary, where the Tata Wild Goose Festival was ongoing and participants would be able to watch the thousands of geese on the Tata Lake. Unfortunately, the event was organized only online at the end, but you can still check out a bit of the atmosphere from the area through the video created by the project partner MAVIR :)
