On 31 January 2023, Stavropol Krai officially
summarized the results of the traditional CPC environmental and education
project “Protect Nature of Our Native Land” and the winners of creative
contests were also awarded.This year, the environmental and education
project was conducted together with the Directorate of Specially Protected
Natural Territories in Stavropol Krai and was aimed at counteracting poaching.
Lessons on this topic were arranged for a total of 2,400 students at 22
educational institutions in Stavropol Krai. They were attended by children from
orphanages, boarding schools, schools of culture and art, students of secondary
schools, students of vocational and higher educational institutions from
Trunovsky, Apanasenkovsky, Novoalexandrovsky, Ipatovsky, Izobilnensky, Turkmensky
Districts of Stavropol Krai and Stavropol city.
Then they had the opportunity to test their
strength in creative competitions in various genres on topics: "Poachers
are the enemy of nature", "Photo hunting - fascinating communication
with nature", "How I save nature", "Into the world of
protected nature - with a good heart".
On 31 of January, prizes and gifts were awarded
to the winners of creative competitions in the building of the Stavropol State
Agrarian University.
Immediately afterwards, the project participants
arrived at the Directorate of Specially Protected Natural Territories of
Stavropol Krai, where a CPC-funded education and training classroom was opened.
It is designed to teach classes to schoolchildren and to test a unique
pedagogical model of environmental education for children and adults.
It is also worth noting that as part of the Protect Nature of Our Native Land Project, CPC has improved the equipment of
inspectors of specially protected natural territories with modern technical
means. Specifically, the Consortium’s funds were used to purchase a photo trap,
thermal imaging camera, chest video recorder, telescopic lens for photo and
video recording. This equipment helps the representatives of nature protection
agencies day and night, from a great distance and in all weathers to record the
facts of poaching and create evidence base of violations for the judicial
authorities. Thus, it enhances the
efficiency of inspectors' work and, as a result, the protection of all
inhabitants of nature reserves.
