Bio-diversity

The goal of the project is to improve the biodiversity in the Orava Region by protection of nesting population of eagle (Aquila pomarina) and by motivating local population to behavior with positive impact on biodiversity as precondition of sustainable development. The population of eagle has in last 50 years decreased by more than 50 %. The aim of the project is to stabilize and create proper conditions for further modest increase of its population. For those purpose will be declared protection zones around the nests of eagles, what should contribute to the strengthening of the nest population and it should create better conditions for improvement of status of the eagle population. Part of the project is also an improvement of the capacity of the Rescue station and Eco-centre for protection of biodiversity. Taken measurements may have also a positive influence on biodiversity of the region; they may contribute to the mitigation of climate changes and to the protection of the soil from erosion.
