Preservation, reproduction and sustainable use of wild growing sea buckthorn with the purpose of conservation of habitat of species of global significance and strengthening natural filtering and cleaning properties of wetlands.
The sea-buckthorn is under danger in this area because it is under great antropogenic preassure. The main reasons are vast cutting down the bushes, pastures, the irrational harvest collection. These all does not just put the sea-buckthorn under danger but also may lead to the land degradation and other serious global environmental problems. The NGO started its work from the seminar that they have attended that is where they have learned about the desrtification and other major environmental problems. Project staff has outlined several reasons why there is a danger of the type's dissapearance: first of all the lack of awareness of the local population and second of all the lack of cooperation from the local authorities side. Several seminars and round tables are going to be organized to increase the awareness of people about the ecological impact that can be put on this area's flora and fauna. The project staff decided to organize the green patrol and guard the territory. Also the NGO understands the inportance of cooperating and involving the local authorities to pass needed laws to forbid the pastures on the area where the sea-buckthorn grows. The measures of the NGO are going to be widely exposured through the information campaign.
