Autumn trip of the STREAM project 2023
19. 10. 2023
Our autumn field trip in the STREAM project is behind us. And what did we accomplish?
- Two tree climbing workshops for local foresters and future forest seed collectors.
- Two workshops focusing on ecology, silviculture and forest tending, forest nurseries, technology, but also the recreational function of forests for foresters and officials from environmental management departments.
- We trained a total of approximately 50 people from the field as part of the workshops.
- Seven events of forest pedagogy for children
from the towns of Bayan-Adarga, Binder, Umnudelger, Yeröö, Bugant, Mandal and Ulaanbaatar, which were attended by approximately 250 children. And lots of adults too. - We set up an experiment aimed at stabilizing a sand dune with trees using various soil additives improving the water supply of the trees.
- We planted nearly 1,000 tree seedlings (mainly elm, pine and larch) and did weeding around those planted last year.
- We also involved four Czech and six Mongolian students in the events
, because practical experience is most important in forest education. Mendelova univerzita v Brně, Česká zemědělská univerzita v Praze, Хөдөө аж ахуйн их сургууль Mongolian University of Life Sciences, German Mongolian Institute for Resources and Technology - GMIT, National University of Mongolia and Mongolian University of Science and Technology students were involved in this way.
- And as part of our free time beyond the scope of the STREAM project, together with the Mongolian Walking Association - Монголын Явган Алхалтын Холбоо we marked and opened the first hiking trail in Mongolia marked with the Czech marking system
.
