New guide offers tips for organising community nature activities

The Aura River Foundation has published a guide titled Tips for Community-based Nature Work, offering practical advice to associations and other organisations on how to organise volunteer-based nature work events.

The guide covers topics such as choosing a suitable site for volunteer work, scheduling the event, finding partners, and addressing safety and communication. It also includes tips for making participation more accessible and a checklist to help organisers with planning.

Community nature activities offer an opportunity to work together for the benefit of local nature, learn new things and meet other people interested in nature. The aim of the guide is to encourage more organisations to arrange joint activities that benefit nature.
