-Starting at 11:00 a.m., the workshop will begin, which will take place in Dare Dzambaz's hut, and the following topics will be covered:

Mountain ecosystem services are vital to life

Healthy mountains matter for biodiversity

Mountain ecosystems are under threat from pollution

*All the materials will be provided by the organizers, except for those that we will collect during the hike along the trails to peak Krstovar.

International Mountain Day 2023 under the theme restoring mountain ecosystem is the chance to increase awareness of the importance of the mountain ecosystem and the call for natural solutions and best practices that will contribute to the fight against climate change and pollution.

If we increase awareness and the need to protect water, air and soil, flora and fauna by spreading the mountaineering knowledge among young people, the chances of preserving and restoring mountains and mountain eco-systems increase many times over.

Because if we change the youth, we will change the world.
