The proyect has two main objectives: 1) Tracing of aquatic birds and 2) Surveillance, prevention and monitoring of poaching.

Monitoring surveys and results

Edit project overview to modify the Monitoring survey and results.


Installation of floating islands, Maintenance and revegetation of swamp banks, installation of observatories, maintenance of crops for bird alimentation. As a result, new species have arrived and the population of Ardeola ralloides is increasing.

Lessons learnt

Edit project overview to modify the lessons learnt.


The conecction between ONG and farmers can be possible, the management of the sources is essential for the ecosystem maintenance.

Reasons for river restoration

Mitigation of a pressure
Hydromorphology
Biology Place for wintering, nesting and migrators birds. Place where Ardeola ralloides is nesting (listed in regional and national Red List). Place with high biodiversity of many groups
Physico-chemical
Other reasons for the project


Measures

Structural measures
Bank/bed modifications
Floodplain / River corridor
Planform / Channel pattern
Other
Non-structural measures
Management interventions Grants from the Administration
Social measures (incl. engagement) Sensitization, awareness campaigns and elaboration of dissemination materials
Other Crops from the private property for nesting and alimentation
