  • 7 Riječnih Čuda Hrvatske!” Završni Događaj Na Ušću Mure U Dravu Nedjelja, 14.07.2013
    “Upoznajte 7 riječnih čuda Hrvatske!” Završni događaj na ušću Mure u Dravu Nedjelja, 14.07.2013. 11:00 – 15:30 U razdoblju od 19. lipnja do 14. srpnja 2013. WWF organizira Mjesec hrvatskih rijeka u kojem želi predstaviti sedam različitih hrvatskih rijeka ili „7 riječnih čuda Hrvatske“. WWF je odabrao 7 hrvatskih rijeka koje se ističu ili zbog svoje iznimne biološke raznolikosti ili zbog iznimnog pejzaža. Neretva, Ombla, Zrmanja, Sava, Dunav, Drava i Mura hrvatska su prirodna baština, a uskoro će postati i prirodna baština EU. Sve su te rijeke jako ugrožene i pod prijetnjom uništenja svojih prirodnih vrijednosti, zato ih je potrebno dodatno zaštiti i održivo se na njima razvijati u smjeru prirodnog turizma. U Mjesecu hrvatskih rijeka WWF će s partnerskim organizacijama organizirati brojne aktivnosti na spomenutim rijekama. Ono što je već potvrđeno sljedeći su događaji: 19.6. - Sava konferencija za novinare na brodu na Savi u organizaciji WWFa i suradnji s Parkom prirode Lonjsko polje 21.6. - Zrmanja Predavanje učenicima srednje škole iz Gračaca o Zrmanji te prigodni rafting u organizaciji Parka prirode Velebit 22.6. - Ombla koncert, eko-radionica s djecom, izložba fotografija u organizaciji udruge Eko-centar Zeleno sunce 29.6./13.7. rijeka Ombla Biciklistička tura, kajakaška tura, planinarski uspon te obilazak Viline špilje, u organizaciji udruge Čovjek na zemlji i HPD Sniježnica 28.-30.6. - Drava Ekološko-edukacijski kamp Dravantura 2013. u organizaciji Rafting kluba Matis „Divlje vode“ 30.6. - Dunav Edukacijske radionice, kanu vožnja, edukativne šetnje, jahanje i prikazivanje filmova u organizaciji Zelenog Osijeka 03.7. - Neretva JU Dubrovačko-neretvanska županija organizira okrugli stol i vožnju Neretvom, te izložbu fotografija u organizaciji udruge Lijepa naša 12.7.
