Biodiversity Week (May 18 - May 26)

From May 18 to 26, 2024, we celebrate 'Biodiversity Week'. This is the perfect time to investigate how much biodiversity there is in our country. For the occasion, the 14 nature partners who work together in the European LIFE project 'Belgium for Biodiversity' joined forces to design a joint citizen science campaign. Under the heading 'Vollenbak natuur bingen/'Plongez dans la nature', which is a simple invitation to spend as much time as possible in nature, the aim is on the one hand to increase knowledge and support for biodiversity in general, but on the other hand also to contribute to monitoring our biodiversity through a large-scale European 'Bioblitz'.
