4th European Protection Symposium: Caves & Karst - Protection and Conservation under EU Law

After Vercors (FR) 2008, Muotathal (CH) 2012 and Băile Herculane (RO) 2014 the 4th EurosSpeleo Protection Symposium (ESPS) will be held on the 15th and 16th of August, during the 5th European Speleology Congress 2016 in Great Britain.

There are a number of best-practices in cave protection all over Europe that show how coordinated work between cavers, scientists, nature protectors and especially authorities can be effective in the field and also work to the happiness of all parties. These case studies are often transcriptable to other regions in Europe and we can learn a lot from such success stories.

 The 4th EuroSpeleo Protection  Symposium is dealing with all this matters. There is no age limit when it comes to act for the good cause, so I invite you all to take part in this 2-Day symposium on the 15th -16th of August during the 5th European Caving congress 2016 in Great Britain.

The form of the presentations and communication can be of any kind: lectures, posters, projections, workshops, self expression.

Please get in contact with us (Dit e-mailadres wordt beveiligd tegen spambots. JavaScript dient ingeschakeld te zijn om het te bekijken.) if you would like to take part in the symposium with any kind of presentation.

 See you all in Great-Britain in 2016.
