The Geo Day of Biodiversity took place for the first time in the Karawanken/Karawanke Geopark. Over 100 participants accepted the Geopark's invitation to explore the study areas of Globasnitzbachgraben and the summit area of the Petzen in search of animal, plant, fungi and lichen species on 5th and 6th of July 2024. Under the proven moderation of E.C.O. Institute for Ecology and ÖKOTEAM Graz, the BIOBliz event was successfully organised. The supervision of the researchers and ultimately the processing and documentation of the results is carried out by the two specialised offices. The biodiversity of a first section of the Geopark in southern Carinthia will be presented in a publication in the Carinthia II series.
