The BALKANS PEACE PARK PROJECT (UK Registered Charity No. 1105447)

NOTICES: Our AGM will take place on September the 19th. Antonia Young will represent the BPPP in Podgorica on the 16th and 17th June. See our Calendar for details of other events. New Summer Programme volunteers are currently very welcome, see our Projects page for more on this exciting opportunity! Read Peter Spafford's Guardian article on the BPPP.

The BPPP aims to facilitate the creation of a trans-national, cross-border park in the adjoining mountain areas of Kosovo/a, Montenegro and northern Albania as a symbol of peace and cooperation:

to promote environmental conservation
to stimulate local employment
to promote sustainable visitor activities in the region

The BPPP is a grassroots network bringing together transnational actors, especially environmental activists in the Balkans, the UK and around the globe, linking with people living and working in the valleys and villages of the area. A truly international cross-border protected area in one of the most spectacular and least known mountain ranges in Europe, can both further the needs, interests and aspirations of the local communities, and help sustain biodiversity and ecological responsibility.
