The project focused on developing green infrastructure in the cross-border region across two neighbouring cities in the Twin City region\u2014Bratislava and Vienna. The official naame of the project was \"Development of Ecosystem-Based Tools and Services for the Conservation and Restoration of Biodiversity in Bratislava and Vienna\".<\/p>\n
By implementing appropriate management practices, we increased biodiversity across 11 hectares of meadows, gathered data on the presence of bats, white-tailed deer, and selected insect species in the region, and educated the general public about the importance of maintaining healthy natural areas in cities.<\/p>\n
By supporting measures to protect meadows and promote selected animal species, we have contributed to the overall strengthening of green infrastructure in the Twin City region.<\/p>\n
One of the project\u2019s key objectives and outcomes was the establishment of the Kamz\u00edk Information Center near Bratislava\u2019s famous landmark\u2014the television tower, named after a peak in the Little Carpathians. As a multipurpose facility for education and institutional cooperation, the Kamz\u00edk Information Center<\/a> aims to effectively communicate to the public the importance of nature conservation and species diversity and to actively contribute to these goals. Together with the \u201cService Center \u2013 City<\/a> Nature\u201d website, it will provide services in environmental education and forest pedagogy. An important part of this recreational and educational complex was the restoration of the arboretum, which was established on a plot of land near the intersection of the roads leading to Kamz\u00edk and the cable car.<\/p>\n The project is being implemented as part of the <\/em>INTERREG V-A SK-AT<\/em><\/a> Cooperation Program and is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.<\/em><\/p>\n Main activities and project outputs<\/strong><\/p>\n Strategic partners without financial participation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
