Long Day of the CityNature

IGB with Zalf and HNE-Eberswalde in Berlin's Princess Gardens
Urban Ecology is an important field of research for the IGB. The "Long Day of Urban Nature" on 25 May 2019 was also about aquatic species diversity in Berlin and recreation on the water. There was also information on aquaculture.

More than 300 people came to the large nature campus of IGB, Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) and Eberswalde University of Applied Sciences for Sustainable Development (HNEE). Information and participation booths, short lectures and a neighbourhood show with a band offered informative and entertaining information about nature and sustainability. Jörg Freyhof fascinated children of all ages in his children's talk on biodiversity with stories about lazy beavers, hardy crayfish and international seagulls. Markus Venohr presented the Aquatag project - a leisure ecology study on man and nature at the water's edge. Fabian Schäfer informed about aquaculture and cleared up traditional clichés. IGB in the Princess Gardens - it was also an exciting excursion for us on the subject of urban nature.
