For the Life green valley project we made information sheets of European protected habitat types, video's of nature management and interactive drawings.
The information sheets are available in Dutch, English and Polish. The three language versions have the same basic text but differ in the details.
- The Dutch version was written from a Flemish perspective and can be found on web pages in ecopedia.
- The English version is more general and can be downloaded below in pdf
- The Polish version is from the Polish perspective and can be downloadable in pdf.
The texts may be used freely provided the source is acknowledged. Images are copyrighted and not free to use.
