LUBINKA

Moscow region, Russia,

Russian Federation

Several families intend to create a new natural reserve on the territory of 500 hectares, south of Moscow, Russia, and to turn the existing village into an eco-community in order to lead and spread the idea of a more eco-conscious life in the area. We also plan to develop ecological education though carrying out some research (monitoring the rare birds and plants species, introduction of disappearing plants, etc.), and building a base for field practice for students and schoolchildren, and holding summer camps.
