WORK PLAN OF THE SCIENTIFIC COUNCIL FOR NATURE AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION IN 2021
The activity of the Scientific Council for Nature and Environmental Protection in the coming year, as always, will depend on the engagement of each member, i.e., on the results and success achieved by each section in its thematic area. Although the usual rhythm of activities is planned, that is, the celebration of expected occasions, such as days or jubilee anniversaries of individual resources or events, the work of the Council in 2021 will be adapted to epidemiological conditions and recommendations. The Executive Board of the Scientific Council for Nature and Environmental Protection will meet, where appropriate, with dynamics tailored to the needs of dealing with ongoing or other “forced” reasons. If the situation dictates, meetings will take place via internet platforms (Zoom, MS Teams, etc.).
As the Council operates through its sections, the work plan of the Scientific Council for Nature and Environmental Protection is presented by the activities of individual sections.
