Roll up your sleeves for biodiversity

You see it more and more in the news: insects are not doing well in the Netherlands. And no matter how nice it is that you put a secondary plant on your balcony, sometimes you just want to do more. The Vlinderstichting gives a group of Trainees the opportunity to really go for it. The Vlinderstichting knows in which areas what must be done to give many different butterflies and animals a chance. Well it is a lot of work if you do that with a few people, but luckily help comes ...

As a trainee you organize at least one event in which you, together with Geocachers, make a piece of nature completely biodiversity proof. You will collaborate with the people who manage an area, make a plan and of course roll up your sleeves yourself. A project for real approachers. Do you recognize yourself in that? Then sign up quickly.

Super gift bonus: you come to places in nature where you are normally not allowed or not allowed.
