Through the first Challenge Call for Proposals for civil society organizations to improve natural values in protected areas from 2023, 13 projects were co-funded, which improved the conditions for the survival of numerous endangered wildlife species and plants in protected areas across Serbia. These projects were realised thanks to financial support from the European Union and Switzerland, amounting to a total of $190,000. More information about these projects can be found HERE.
