Empowerment

Four expert speakers from EU-funded projects – BIONEXT, BIOTraCes, BIOTRAILS, and CLEVER – brought together thought-provoking research and real-world examples from across the globe. They discussed how participatory action research reveals meaningful local engagement, amplifies real-world impact, and deepens our understanding of what truly works.

Field trip and project workshops converge in a week of exchange and reflection.

In May 2025, BIOTraCes partners gathered in Hungary for a five-day meeting that combined field experiences with focused project work. The event was split into two parts: an optional field trip on 12–13 May, followed by in-depth workshops at the HUN-REN Centre for Ecological Research from 14–16 May.
