Pollution, an integrated sea-coast response

As part of an Agreement between MASE and ISPRA, an in-depth project was launched on the operational synergies deriving from the "MiTE Anti-pollution Plan" and national and local planning, which address the response methods, at sea and on the coast, in case of accidental pollution caused by spills of petroleum products and dangerous and noxious chemical substances (HNS).

The use of dog units in the conservation of biodiversity

Apr 04, 2024 from 09:30 AM to 01:30 PM — Milano, Sede ENCI - Sala Conferenze, via Corsica, 20,

The use of dogs for wildlife conservation and management is taking on an increasingly important role, thanks to the abilities of these animals, for example the ability to recognize odors even very diluted in the environment and to investigate large surfaces in a short time. For these reasons, the LIFE Perdix project used dogs to ascertain the reproduction and distribution of Italian partridges released into the Mezzano Valley. The workshop intends to provide an overview of the different topics in which dogs can be efficiently used for the conservation of biodiversity and to propose specific guidelines for their use.
