Workshop on Good Practices by GO2 Albania

In Pogradec, we organized a workshop dedicated to good practices in biodiversity protection, within the framework of the project “Life Around Water”.

For this activity, we invited our partner GO2 Albania from Shkodra, who brought their experience and practices developed over the years in identifying and protecting species in aquatic ecosystems.

Through presentations and discussions, participants had the opportunity to learn about concrete examples from the field and gain a better understanding of the challenges related to biodiversity conservation.

The workshop brought together a diverse group of participants, including high school students, biology teachers, university students, representatives of the local community, and field experts, creating an open space for the exchange of experiences and knowledge.

An important part of the activity was the practical component, where participants were involved in creating a herbarium, as a concrete way to explore and document local flora.

A special thanks goes to Aurora and Abdullai, two experts passionate about lake species and herbarium creation, who generously shared their knowledge and experience with the participants.

Through these activities, we aim to strengthen awareness and the active role of the community in environmental protection, emphasizing the importance of coexistence with nature and the preservation of aquatic ecosystems.

This activity is part of the project “Life Around Water”, within the Green-AL program, funded by the Swedish Government through Sida and implemented by Co-PLAN in cooperation with VIS Albania and COSV.
