On Wednesday, October 14, 2020, our project partner BOKU-ITS in cooperation with the National Park Neusiedlersee - Seewinkel organizes a Transnational Event in Illmitz, Burgenland. The National Park Neusiedlersee - Seewinkel is Austria's only steppe national park. The national park consists of extensive meadows and pastures, salt lakes and reeds. It is home to a great variety of animal and plant species, including around 350 bird species.

The center of the national park in Illmitz is only about 80 kilometers away from the federal capital Vienna. Illmitz is easily accessible by train and bus from Vienna. The national park is also located directly on the "Neusiedlersee Radweg" cycle route. This route is the only one in Austria that has been awarded five stars by the German ADFC.

Due to the Covid-19 measures, the possibility of physical participation is very limited, so we also offer the possibility of virtual participation. The lectures will be broadcasted live via the following zoom channel. Of course, there is also the possibility for online discussion.
