We are swimming towards these seas of knowledge....

NATURE AND ENVIROMENT CONSERVATION.

"There is a great teacher, if we can understand him: it is a nature" (Kleist) Therefore we educate our target groups about natural processes and interrelations in nature, particularly those related to the biology and ecology of the sea.

Historical and cultural heritage.

Healthy and preserved environment is the greatest chance of development of areas in which we operate. We want to encourage healthy lifestyle and help our target groups in making personal, business and public decision in accordance with the preservation of the environment.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT PROMOTION.

Our favorite definition of sustainable development is: "Sustainable development is US!". By educating and informing the local population we encourage civic activism.

CHILDREN AND YOUTH.

We offer them a stimulating environment for the development of values such as: respect for nature, love for the homeland, respect for diversity and intercultural exchange.

MURTER ISLAND AND KORNATI ISLANDS.

The natural and cultural heritage of our region is an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the entire work of the Association.

LOC. REG. NAT. INTERNAT.

In order to multiply the results of the Association, we encourage cooperation and build partnerships at all levels.
