Are you ready to experience urban nature?
This February, we are launching our exciting new project: Experience Urban Nature! Through this initiative, we aim to inspire people of all ages to explore, discover, and experience nature in urban spaces in a completely new way.
During six guided field trips, held in Croatian, we will educate Zagreb’s citizens about environmental conservation, the ecological crisis, climate change adaptation, biodiversity, environmental justice, and other pressing environmental issues. These topics will be covered directly in the city’s natural spaces, using real-life examples specific to Zagreb.
Our activities will be tailored to all age groups, featuring games, debates, quizzes, nature observations, and investigative tasks, ensuring that participants gain new knowledge through hands-on, practical experiences.
Why Join Us?
If you want to spend time outdoors, learn more about the nature around you, engage with environmental experts, and develop or enhance your ecological awareness through engaging research tasks, this project is the perfect opportunity!
Whether you’re a family with children, a nature enthusiast, or simply looking for a new way to spend your free time, these field trips are open to everyone!
