During the event, the director held several significant meetings to discuss the importance of these projects. He emphasized that the success of the initiatives largely depends on the maximum effort and commitment of all parties involved.

Mavrovo National Park is a partner in the project titled “Every Step Matters” – Utilizing Ecotourism for Sustainable Financing of Cross-Border Environmental Protection and Mitigating Climate Change Challenges.

The lead beneficiary of the project is Sharri National Park from Kosovo, while the partners are Mavrovo National Park, Shar Planina National Park, and the Municipality of Tearce.

The total budget of the project is 573,315 EUR.

Within the framework of this project, several key activities are planned for Mavrovo National Park. This includes the development of a new, modern web platform and a mobile application aimed at bringing the park’s offerings closer to visitors through modern digital solutions.
