  • Pressemitteilung „Allen Unkenrufen Zum Trotz“ Erhält Auszeichnung Als
    Medieninformation Nr. 211 Telefon: (08161)600-154 Freising, den 22.07.2020 Pressemitteilung „Allen Unkenrufen zum Trotz“ erhält Auszeichnung als offizielles Projekt der UN-Dekade Biologische Vielfalt Das Projekt „Allen Unkenrufen zum Trotz“ ist am Mittwoch, 22. Juli, als offizielles Projekt der UN- Dekade Biologische Vielfalt ausgezeichnet worden. Diese Ehrung wird vorbildlichen Projekten zuteil, die sich in besonderer Weise für die Erhaltung der biologischen Vielfalt in Deutschland einsetzen. Die Würdigung wurde durch das Bundesamt für Naturschutz an die Vertretungen der vier Träger BUND Naturschutz, Landkreis Freising, Landkreis Neuburg/Donau und Landkreis Altötting überreicht. Freisings Landrat Helmut Petz drückte seine Freude über den Preis aus und dankte allen Ehrenamtlichen, die das Projekt unterstützen. Über 400 Biotope wurden für die Gelbbauchunke eingerichtet, mehrere Grundstücke für den Erhalt dieses kleinen Froschlurchs gesichert, rund 90 Menschen für den Schutz dieser Art ausgebildet – das kann sich als Bilanz aus den ersten vier Jahren des Projekts sehen lassen, heißt es vonseiten der Trägergemeinschaft. Mit diesem vorbildlichen Projekt werde ein deutliches Zeichen für das Engagement zur Erhaltung biologischer Vielfalt in Deutschland gesetzt, unterstrich Freisings Landrat Petz. Neben der offiziellen Urkunde und einem Auszeichnungsschild erhielt die Trägergemeinschaft einen „Vielfalt- Baum“, der symbolisch für die Naturvielfalt steht. „Viel hilft viel – das ist die Devise bei dieser Pionierart, die auf frische Kleingewässer angewiesen ist, um ihrem Nachwuchs das Überleben zu ermöglichen“, verrät Siegfried Geißler, Leiter der Unteren Naturschutzbehörde in Neuburg-Schrobenhausen, einer der Trägerlandkreise des Projekts. Das sei einer der wichtigsten Gründe, warum in diesem Landkreis bayernweit die größten Bestände der Art zu finden sind. Kleine Gewässer, Quelltümpel, Viehweiden, aber auch Pfützen und wassergefüllte Fahrspuren: Hier fühlt sich die Gelbbauchunke wohl, hier legt sie ihre Eier ab.

Abstract The study of values in Europe, observable through the prism of welfare, consists of an examination of the values of various groups in the domain of welfare, e.g. in the expression and provision of ‘basic’ individual and group needs. The different values and practices of the majority and the minorities are a source of tension in the German society. German policy tries to direct the interaction between majority and minorities towards more cohesion and solidarity. At the same time it becomes more obvious that minority groups influence and challenge majority values.
