Estonian people have lived in these lands since ancient times and ancient Estonians were known as a wise and mysterious people. They have been described as a nation of witches and sorcerers, and for good reason. While later periods of Estonian history can be learned about in a number of places across the country, the Viking Age (8th to 11th century) in our lands has not received much attention. The Viking Village is the result of one man s long-lived dream and the boldness and initiative of young enthusiasts. It all started in 2005, when the current chieftains of the Viking Village discovered an ancient and mysterious location on the scenic bank of the Pirita River, which could not have been a better place to build an ancient Estonian Viking village.The mission of the Viking Village is to give people a sense of what ancient life was like and to provide a place to relax and learn to know themselves as well as their environment. It is a place where you can take a break from fast-paced modern life and discover the Viking within yourself. The Viking Village is constantly being expanded and improved. Today, we have completed roughly half of the planned village, which means that there is at least as much to come More information: www.viikingitekyla.ee

Luogo
Sessa Aurunca è città di antica origine. Sono presenti tracce preistoriche e necropoli risalenti all'VIII secolo a.C. Nel IV°sec. a.C. divenne possesso di Roma e importante centro militare, commerciale e rurale.
Il Parco Regionale di Roccamonfina Foce Garigliano, situato nel cuore della regione Campania, si estende per circa 11000 ettari, tra i territori del basso Lazio del Molise e dell'area urbana di Caserta. Il parco è dominato dall'imponente mole dell'apparato vulcanico del Roccamonfina, più antico del Vesuvio e costituito da un recinto craterico esterno largo 6 km. La composizione dei suoli ha favorito la nascita di splendidi castagneti nella parte sommitale, mentre l'ecosistema costiero è prevalentemente costituito dalla pineta nata durante il periodo della bonifica. Nei pressi della foce del Garigliano svettano i resti della torre di Pandolfo di Capodiferro costruita nel 940 per fronteggiare i saraceni.
Attività formative
Corso di formazione per operatori AIB (Antincendio Boschivo), corso di riconoscimento della fauna e flora del parco.
Con la locale Associazione Astrofili si prevedono attività di osservazione astronomica.
Si svolgeranno visite ai laboratori artigianali dove si produce la mozzarella di bufala per visionare tutto il ciclo produttivo sino allo smaltimento dei rifiuti. Visite ad alcune Cantine dove si produce il vino Falerno vino Nettare degli Dei, patrimonio immateriale della regione Campania. Visita al Museo di Sessa Aurunca e della Civiltà Contadina Conca della Campania.
Visita al Museo Natura Viva che ospita una ricca collezione zoologica rappresentativa della biodiversità degli ecosistemi del pianeta e un allestimento interattivo illustrante le peculiarità naturali e ambientali del Parco Regionale di Roccamonfina – foce Garigliano e del territorio.

FSL-India has been running work camps all over India since 2001. Over the years, FSL-India has developed a strong network of local partners and local volunteers in the regions where we conduct our camps. The Volunteer camp will be run to provide an opportunity for volunteers to do a community service clubbed with Cultural exchange which will give a greater learning experience. The camp activities will focus on understanding the social and cultural aspects of the community they work. The volunteers will be given experience through interactions, workshops, and meetings with University students and Government officials to understand the development issues. We believe that the experience will give the volunteers a global perspective of the community and the possibility to be change-makers in their own community.

This project is actively working for SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDGs 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), organized together with the local group since 2019. This village has been welcoming ohenro (pilgrims) who visit 88 temples in Shikoku since long time ago. The pilgrims walk through this village before visiting Kakurin-ji temple; the 20th temple out of 88 temples of the Shikoku Ohenro Pilgrimage. However, there are problems which should be solved such as aging and depopulation of the community these days, and locals haven't been able to find solutions for those problems. On the other hand, since more and more people from overseas visit for the Shikoku Ohenro Pilgrimage locals are trying to find new ways for omotenashi (hospitality). Volunteers who have been working on the project have come up with ideas for the reuse of vacant and abandoned land. Local host Oi have finally decided that they can freely renovate and modify the vacant houses. Moreover, the site is in a good location, with mountains, a river and fields. It is up to the volunteers from now on to decide how to develop the project. The aim is for the volunteer members to clean up the abandoned houses and village landscape and transform it into a village that people will want to visit to take photos, as it used to be a village where people came and went since ancient times. This year's project is a joint project with Fukuoka Prefecture. Japanese participants will include seven high school students from Fukuoka Prefecture and NICE staff.

This project is actively working for SDG 1 (No poverty) and SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), organized together with Green Volunteers for Green Future (GV4GF) since 2012 (since 2023 in this place!). The total area was a tea plantation until Independence (in 1948) and after that government took the administration. Some parts of the estates were abandoned and some parts were distributed among people. During the development of hydropower projects in the nearby area, many lost their properties and were relocated to this area. Tea plantation is the lifeline of most people and still, some people work in fields. There are 3 tea factories still functioning. Very few people are working in the city or for the government. This area is not a popular destination among the locals or foreigners because of the difficulty in accessing common facilities. We got an opportunity to discuss with an officer who coordinates livelihood development activities of the village to the regional secretariat office and he suggested we visit and have programs with villagers.

Dating back to the Gallo-Roman era, Preignan showcases remnants of its past, including a Gallo-Roman villa perched atop the ridges. At the heart of the village stands a Romanesque church, likely erected on an ancient Merovingian burial ground.
The Rambert mill, also known as the Hydroberge, stands as a historic and emblematic monument in Preignan. Much of your volunteering will revolve around this location. The Hydroberge serves as a welcoming space, housing a community café and hosting various cultural events throughout the year, such as concerts, conferences, and practical workshops.
The area is celebrated for its rich heritage and gastronomy. During the summer months, the place comes alive with numerous festivals, concerts and events.

If you're in the mood for nature, the charm of a small village and a warm welcome, come to Réauville in Drôme provençale. The village is dominated by its Rocher de la Vierge, which offers an incomparable panorama of its lavender fields and from which you can see Mont Ventoux. Réauville is a "royal city" in the heart of the Tricastin region, which has experienced greatness and decline over the course of its long history. The village owes its name to the brother of King Saint Louis. It is an ancient village, with some houses dating back to the 15th century that have retained their remarkable architecture, such as the "dessus l'Arc" house. Réauville is the birthplace of the family of President Emile Loubet and Louis Portalier, who was Captain of the Empire (1791). Another historic figure makes the town proud: Albert Séverin Roche. Born in Réauville on 5 March 1895, he was proclaimed "First Soldier of France" by Marshal Foch on 27 November 1918 in Strasbourg. You can still see the house where he was born.
In this historic village, you can help to rebuild a low wall made of local stone. This wall is part of a larger redevelopment project: the new town hall square.
Luogo
Réauville is located in the Drôme department, 8 km from Grignan and 20 km south-east of Montélimar. The "Drôme provençale" tourist region is renowned for its authentic landscapes, lavender and stone villages. During your stay in Réauville, we recommend that you take the royal walk, starting from Place de la Paix, an easy 3km circuit that allows you to discover all the environmental heritage of the commune. You can also discover the fountains, wash-houses, painted decorations of the church and the Museum of Agricultural Memory. The entertainers will work with the whole group to plan visits to the surrounding villages.
Alloggio
You will be accommodated in individual tents, a stone's throw from the local shop "Chez Paulette". Two areas have been set up to provide single-sex toilet and shower facilities. A room will be equipped for meals and for retreating in case of bad weather (cani-cule, storms). Together, you'll help to organise community life (cleaning, activities, etc.) and take turns preparing meals using locally sourced produce. As far as possible, we will promote vegetarian meals using local, seasonal produce, while ensuring that the diets of all participants are respected, and that local gastronomy is discovered.

Legambiente per l’estate 2024, in Abruzzo, promuove dei campi di volontariato che hanno come obiettivo il recupero e la valorizzazione dei sentieri che erano parte delle antiche vie tratturali, infrastrutture legate alla storia millenaria degli agricoltori e dei pastori sulle montagne, e alla tradizione della transumanza, inserita dall'UNESCO nella Lista del Patrimonio Culturale Immateriale. I volontari aiuteranno nella pulizia dei sentieri situati nell'area del Convento di San Pasquale (nel bosco di Vallaspra), la cui fondazione risalirebbe al 1408. Gli interventi consistono nella sistemazione e pulizia del sentiero e nel recupero di alcuni tratti interrotti dalla vegetazione. Lungo il percorso sarà predisposta nuova segnaletica per consentire una migliore fruizione del percorso. Inoltre il campo di Atessa si inserisce nel programma dell'estate della città per il contributo organizzativo al tradizionale evento "Corti Antiche"!
Lavoro
I volontari lavoreranno per circa 6 ore al giorno. I lavori si svolgeranno prevalentemente nelle prime ore del mattino. Gli interventi consistono nella sistemazione e pulizia del sentiero e il recupero di alcuni tratti interrotti dalla vegetazione. Lungo il percorso sarà predisposta nuova segnaletica per consentire una migliore fruizione del percorso. Cuore del campo sarà anche il contributo all'organizzazione di una festa tradizionale nel centro storico di Atessa, "Corti Antiche", un percorso di scoperta dei sapori del territorio ma anche delle vie, delle piazzette e delle ruelle di Atessa. Ogni anno sono migliaia i turisti, visitatori e curiosi che approfittano di questa magica serata per scoprire il buon cibo e la bellezza degli angoli e degli scorci del centro storico della città. L’edizione 2024 si terrà venerdì 16 agosto all'interno delle corti, dove verranno organizzati spettacoli di musica, teatro e danza e allestimenti d’arte. Il filo conduttore dell’evento (e quindi degli spettacoli e degli allestimenti d'arte) di quest'anno sarà l’Economia Circolare, uno dei pilastri della transizione ecologica. I volontari del campo guidati dal Circolo locale aiuteranno nella realizzazione e nella riuscita green di tutto l'evento.
Luogo
Atessa si trova nella bassa valle del Fiume Sangro, a metà strada tra la Costa dei Trabocchi e la catena montuosa della Majella. Il centro storico si presenta come il risultato di un processo di conurbazione di due insediamenti: "Ate - Tixa". La storia dell'unione dei due villaggi longobardi di Ate e Tixa fa riferimento a una leggenda molto antica, legata al patrono della città San Leucio d'Alessandria. A pochissimi chilometri dal centro storico, in località Vallaspra, si trovano immersi nel bosco il Convento di San Pasquale e chiesa di Santa Maria degli Angeli luogo che trasmette un forte senso di appartenenza, d'identità religiosa, spirituale e culturale. Il Comune di Atessa ha creduto fortemente in questo evento che è un modo per valorizzare la bellezza del centro storico e per promuovere i prodotti enogastronomici di qualità del nostro territorio, a cui da sempre è legata una parte importante dell’economia della Val di Sangro.

L'area di Monte Pallano e Lecceta d'Isca d'Archi è ricca di fascino, grazie ai suoi tesori naturali e archeologici. La sua posizione strategica e la presenza di sorgenti d'acqua hanno favorito l'insediamento dell'uomo nella zona: come testimoniano i resti dell'insediamento dell'antica Pallanum e le imponenti Mura Megalitiche, sono state rinvenute dagli archeologi tracce della presenza umana dal Paleolitico al Neolitico e al periodo ellenistico-romano.

Progetto
Swimtrekking significa letteralmente trekking a nuoto: è un modo originale per vivere e sentire l’ambiente, un viaggio in mare con maschera, boccaglio, pinne, muta, portando con sé tutto il necessario per l’escursione in un piccolo scafo in vetroresina da trainare: il barkino.
L’attività di Swimtrekking migliora la propria tecnica individuale nel nuoto, sviluppa l’autocontrollo e la conoscenza di sé e di una serie di tecniche quali l’apnea e il salvamento, studia la flora e la fauna, il moto ondoso, i venti e le correnti, rafforza e accresce le dinamiche del gruppo.
Attraverso la guida di istruttori qualificati, i volontari esploreranno e monitoreranno i fondali marini e i tratti costieri contribuendo alla raccolta dati su noci di mare, meduse, delfini e tartarughe. Inoltre, verranno recuperati i rifiuti in mare e lungo la costa che saranno poi utilizzati per la realizzazione di opere artistiche che saranno fotografate, smaltite e, ove possibile, differenziate. Si ricorda che tutti gli istruttori della ASD Swimtrekking hanno una formazione specifica per guidare e seguire le varie fasi di un campo Swimtrekking abbracciando le competenze tecniche della disciplina, conoscenze di biologia marina e di recupero e riciclaggio artistico dei rifiuti.
ORIENTEERING
Chi partecipa ad una prova di Orienteering, utilizza una carta topografica realizzata appositamente per questo Sport, con segni convenzionali unificati in tutto il mondo e l’ausilio di una bussola. Si svolge individualmente o in squadra, transitando dai diversi punti di controllo posti sul territorio. Vince chi impiega il tempo minore; in questo Sport comunque non vince sempre il piú veloce, ma colui che é in grado di orientarsi piú rapidamente e di fare le scelte di percorso migliori. Naturalmente l’Orienteering puó essere praticato tutti i giorni, ognuno con il proprio obiettivo: lo sportivo per allenarsi, la famiglia e l’appassionato per divertirsi e trascorrere una giornata piacevole tra amici ed all’aria aperta. In questo campo Swimtrekking i partecipanti avranno quindi la possibilità di conoscere l’attività di orienteering e di integrarla con l’attività di Swimtrekking. Almeno una attività di Orienteering, sarà svolta in mare durante un’escursione di Swimtrekking lungo le coste di Limnos. Questo aspetto del programma sarà curato dell’istruttore di Orienteering che, attraverso dei briefing mirati, metterà i partecipanti in grado di affrontare correttamente l’itinerario a mare. Questa parte più sportiva del programma non avrà comunque finalità agonistiche e lo spirito sarà caratterizzato sempre dal desiderio di condividere in allegria l’esplorazione della bellissima isola di Limnos.
I volontari affronteranno le seguenti tematiche:
Conoscere il mare
Flora e fauna del mediterraneo – AvvistApp
Fotografare in acqua
Riciclo artistico dei materiali di rifiuto
Marine and beach litter
Nuotare in mare - Conoscenza del nuoto e degli aspetti relativi alla sicurezza in mare e al salvamento, alle situazioni meteo-marine, ai venti, alla forza del moto ondoso, alle correnti
Aspetti pratici e teorici dello Swimtrekking.
Lavoro
I volontari recupereranno i rifiuti dal mare durante le nuotate lungo costa e li trasporteranno a riva. Al termine delle attività in acqua si progetteranno e realizzeranno delle opere artistiche, utilizzando solo i materiali recuperati dal mare e dalle coste. I rifiuti saranno ri-assemblati dando sfogo alla fantasia per produrre nuove forme che raccontano l’esperienza vissuta in mare. Il lavoro artistico verrà poi documentato attraverso foto e video. Al termine dell’attività, le opere verranno smaltite seguendo le normative locali di raccolta differenziata. I volontari svolgeranno inoltre le attività di Marine and Beach Litter- indagine sulla quantità e tipologia di rifiuti raccolti in mare e sulle spiagge raggiunte durante le escursioni, al fine di contribuire alla Direttiva Europea sulla Marine Strategy. Tutte le attività del campo, il lavoro in mare e il lavoro artistico saranno documentate con una macchina fotografica compatta scafandrata messa a disposizione dall’ASD Swimtrekking, insieme a un computer. A fine campo sarà realizzato un video con tutti i contenuti delle attività svolte e consegnato ai partecipanti (munirsi di penna USB). Altro aspetto fondamentale del campo sarà il censimento di specie marine e delle meduse. L’OGS (Istituto Nazionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale proseguirà la collaborazione con Swimtrekking in un progetto Citizen Science estendendo per il 2024 la raccolta di informazioni su ogni avvistamento di meduse, tartarughe di mare, noci di mare e delfini.
Luogo
L’isola di Limnos, (Lemno o Lemnos), si trova nella parte nordorientale dell’Egeo, in una posizione strategica che in tempi antichi era il crocevia di numerose rotte marine. Dopo essere stata in passato un importante polo militare, Limnos è oggi un’isola tranquilla e poco affollata, dall’ambiente rilassato, al di fuori dei circuiti turistici tradizionali e quindi ideale per chi desidera trovare luoghi pacifici dove avere l’opportunità di conoscere l’ospitalità della popolazione locale.
L’isola è di origine vulcanica e secondo la mitologia greca, era la casa di Efesto, dio del fuoco che qui aveva la sua fucina ed insegnava l’arte della lavorazione del ferro, mestiere artigianale ancora praticato come testimoniano le numerose botteghe presenti nella capitale Myrina.
Attività formative
I volontari, adeguatamente informati in merito a flora e fauna marina avranno il compito di censire, catalogare e studiare i comportamenti delle meduse, noci d mare, tartarugehe e delfini incontrate durante le attività di esplorazione lungo costa. I volontari seguiranno inoltre le direttive tema dei progetti Marine and Beach Litter per la conservazione dell'ambiente naturalistico.
Alloggio
Seaview Saravari Studios sono dei confortevoli e spaziosi appartamenti situati sul versante nord-est dell’isola tra Paralia Savari e Paralia Amniou
Requisiti e materiali
L’attività dello Swimtrekking si basa sul nuoto. Sarà quindi fondamentale che tutti i volontari sappiano nuotare i due stili principali: lo stile libero e lo stile dorso. Specifichiamo inoltre che non sono assolutamente importanti i tempi di percorrenza e la tecnica individuale ma una certa abitudine all’attività fisica. Si richiede quindi una certa consuetudine con l’attività sportiva di qualsiasi genere sia pur blanda. Le persone molto sedentarie non sono adatte a questo tipo di esperienza. L’attività di Swimtrekking migliora la propria tecnica individuale nel nuoto, sviluppa l’autocontrollo e la conoscenza di sé, fa conoscere una serie di tecniche quali l’apnea e il salvamento, studia la flora e la fauna, il moto ondoso, i venti e le correnti, rafforza e accresce le dinamiche del gruppo. Chiunque può quindi affrontare in maniera positiva l’esperienza di un campo Swimtrekking se interessato a sperimentare le conoscenze da noi proposte.

Organizzatore
La ASD Swimtrekking è un’associazione sportiva dilettantistica affiliata alla UISP che da 29 anni organizza il trekking a nuoto in varie località del Mar Mediterraneo e del mondo.
L’attività dello Swimtrekking nasce con l’intento di esplorare e monitorare l’ambiente marino e si sostanzia nella realizzazione di corsi e stage, sia in piscina che in mare, le cui tematiche spaziano dalla tecnica dello Swimtrekking e dell’allenamento agli aspetti teorici e pratici della sicurezza in mare, della conoscenza della flora e della fauna, della tutela e salvaguardia dell'habitat marino, dello studio e della conoscenza dei venti, delle correnti e delle condizioni meteo-marine esclusivamente in funzione dell’attività stessa che porta. Le attività Swimtrekking coinvolgono bambini, adolescenti, famiglie, adulti e diversamente abili e seguono un progetto ambientale e sociale condotto da un team di educatori e tecnici del settore.

Organizzatore
This project is actively working for SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDGs 15 (Life on Land), organized together with Akame no SATOYAMA wo Sodateru kai, a local environmental organization for conservation of SATOYAMA forest working in Nabari city since 1999. Because this area is relatively close to the big cities between Osaka and Nagoya, there were plans to build a golf field and a disposal center. However, the local people stopped those plans by collecting donations and buying the land. SATOYAMA needs to be maintained by humans for its biodiversity and water adjustment function. Our ancestors had protected and utilized the forest in an ecological and sustainable way, which has been neglected by modernization at many places in Japan.

Progetto
Il progetto prevede attività di monitoraggio del territorio e dei turisti, di raccolta dei rifiuti sia galleggianti che spiaggiati in aree sensibili del territorio. I volontari parteciperanno alle attività di monitoraggio acqueo e via terra, con lavori di pulizia da rifiuti e di sistemazione delle isole minori. Particolare attenzione sarà rivolta al controllo della pressione antropica sui siti di particolare pregio ambientale.
Lavoro
I volontari saranno impegnati in attività di prevenzione degli incendi (AIB) sull’Isola dei Conigli e alla realizzazione di campagne di sensibilizzazione turistica ed educazione ambientale. Sono previsti dei lavori manuali come il ripristino della cartellonistica informativa delle peculiarità dell'isola. I volontari collaboreranno, inoltre, con il gruppo di Ispettori Ambientali di Legambiente e dell’ente gestore della Riserva Naturale Orientata Regionale “Palude del Conte e Duna Costiera - Porto Cesareo” per avviare campagne di sensibilizzazione della popolazione mirate a incrementare la consapevolezza del vivere civile e dell’educazione ambientale. Verrà effettuato anche un servizio di sensibilizzazione dinamica su tutta l’isola Grande al fine di prevenire eventuali cattive pratiche come: accensioni di fuochi, accampamenti, taglio di piante, abbandono di rifiuti, ecc.. Saranno organizzate, inoltre, nelle ore di tempo libero, escursioni sull’Isola Grande e sulla Penisola della Strea, visite guidate naturalistiche e del Museo di Biologia Marina “P. Parenzan”. Durante il campo è prevista, inoltre, l’Installazione del pesce “Nemo Mangiaplastica” (struttura a forma di pesce in polipropilene unito ad altri materiali raccolti nelle varie pulizie delle spiagge che da anni realizziamo come Circolo) e successivo laboratorio in spiaggia sul riciclo creativo e sulla Marine Litter.
Luogo
Porto Cesareo grazie al suo porto naturale che si affaccia sull’Isola Grande, nota come Isola dei Conigli, ed al micro arcipelago, è una delle aree geografiche tra le più belle della penisola salentina. L’isola dista circa 200 mt dalla costa ed è ricoperta da una folta pineta di “Pino d’Aleppo“, da Acace, Lentisco, Spinaporci, la Salicornia ed il Limonio Japigico; nel periodo autunnale e primaverile diviene sosta obbligata da parte di uccelli migratori, come il Fenicottero Rosa e il Germano Reale.
I fondali presentano un caratteristico ambiente sub-tropicale con associazioni animali molto particolari e tipiche dei mari caldi. La vegetazione tipica mediterranea offre in ogni periodo dell’anno fioriture e colorazioni di grande effetto e, grazie alla presenza di microclimi, nella riserva è possibile osservare piante uniche al mondo come l’orchidea selvatica Iris Revoluta Colasante.
Dalla stazione di Lecce, bus per Porto Cesareo.
Attività formative
Il campo di Legambiente affronterà, tra gli altri, il problema della erosione costiera e della marine litter.
Il primo riguarda sostanzialmente il contrasto all’erosione costiera e consumo di arenile dovuto alla pressione antropica che depaupera e svilisce, anno dopo anno, il sistema dunale. Come è noto, la costa di Porto Cesareo, rientrante in toto nella riserva marina e terrestre, rappresenta un attrattore enorme per il turismo balneare, con un flusso di oltre 100.000 turisti annui che si concentrano quasi esclusivamente nei due mesi estivi di luglio ed agosto. Questa cifra sale enormemente se, oltre ai turisti che occupano alberghi, hotels e b&b, si considerano anche tutti i residenti nei Comuni limitrofi che, quotidianamente, si riversano lungo la costa: in questo caso tale cifra pare arrivare a circa 1.000.000 di persone all’anno, secondo uno studio, non pubblicato, dell’Istituto Tagliacarne (Ianne, 2006).
Il secondo obiettivo del campo 2024, non meno importante del primo, è il contrasto ad uno dei fenomeni, a scala globale, di alterazione degli equilibri dell’ecosistema mare che, per i rischi all’ambiente, all’economia, alla salute umana, può essere paragonato solo al problema dei cambiamenti climatici. La marine litter (ML), letteralmente “spazzatura marina”, è costituita da qualunque materiale o manufatto solido persistente di origine antropica, scaricato deliberatamente o introdotto accidentalmente in mare o lungo le coste. Il 95% della ML è composta da materie plastiche. Il resto è metallo, vetro e materiali di altra natura.
Nell’ambito della Marine Strategy per mantenere un buon stato ambientale del mare, delle coste e del sistema dunale, il circolo Legambiente Porto Cesareo intende realizzare i seguenti obiettivi:
- coinvolgere e sensibilizzare i fruitori del litorale cesarino sulle tematiche di emergenza planetaria quali l’inquinamento marino da rifiuti solidi.
- stimolare consapevolezza e responsabilità sull’impatto che i comportamenti individuali hanno sull’ambiente;
- informare sulle norme comportamentali da adottare per preservare i delicati equilibri degli ecosistemi mare - spiaggia;
- motivare e approfondire la conoscenza e il rispetto del territorio;
- incoraggiare la partecipazione attiva nella tutela del territorio attraverso un approccio critico ai problemi.
- incrementare le conoscenze sulla vegetazione costiera.
