Ibader gives a course on the management and conservation of inland wetlands (14/07/2014)

On the 14^th, 15^th and 16^th of July, the University of Santiago de Compostela’s Institute of Agricultural Biodiversity and Rural Development (Ibader) held a University summer course on “Management and Conservation of Inland Wetlands in the Framework of the EU’s Strategy on Biodiversity”.

The course formed part of the LIFE+ TREMEDAL project’s dissemination, educational and technical training actions, and focused on the conservation of inland wetlands, mainly in the north of the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of the course was to familiarise the public with a diagnosis of the current state of habitats of this kind, centring on those at greater risk of disappearing or deteriorating, peatlands and wet environments, and to present specific conservation actions to guarantee their ecological worth and make their importance more widely known.
