MES-president Ljupco Melovski thanks EuroNatur-president Christel Schroeder for the longstanding collaboration.
© MESAround 250 participants from Macedonia and other European countries got together in Ohrid, Macedonia, to discuss the current situation of nature and wildlife conservation within the country and find ways to tackle pressing challenges. The congress was held by the Macedonian Ecological Society. This year the organization celebrates its 40th anniversary.
EuroNatur has cooperated with MES since 2004. The two organizations worked together for the declaration of new, large-scale and transboundary protected areas in and around Macedonia, thus sustainably conserving the habitat of the Balkan lynx and other rare species. In recognition of many years of cooperation and support, Ljupco Melovski, MES president, presented Christel Schroeder, president of EuroNatur, with a certificate of appreciation.
