The publication originated within the Leonardo da Vinci Pilot Project “EduNatHer, Educational Strategies for the Promotion of Natural Heritage”, supported by EU funds. The Leonardo da Vinci Pilot Project is one of the longest-running instruments of cooperation among educational organizations and researchers across Europe. The book is the result of cooperation among academic
and research institutions from six countries – Greece, Romania, Portugal, Italy, Malta, and
Turkey –, and its focus is on natural landmarks and monuments from those countries. The main objective is to help strengthening links between scientific organizations, and public and private sectors involved in preservation and management of natural sites. The case studies presented, distributed in Europe east to west, are of relevant environmental or educational interest.
