Conservation work by EAZA Polish Members

 

January 2025 Conservation Snapshot

Holding the presidency of the EU Council is an opportunity for a country to demonstrate leadership, advocate for its priorities, and strengthen its influence within the EU.

The presidency rotates among EU Members every six months.

For zoos and aquariums located in the "presiding" country, it is a perfect moment to create extra attention for their natural heritage, biodiversity, sustainability, and environmental diplomacy.

There are many ways to do this, including by highlighting their species conservation successes as well as educating their visitors on EU environmental policies, climate action, and the European Green Deal.

From January – June 2025, Poland is holding the presidency. Check the infographics to know who our Polish Members are and which Polish (or typically Polish) species they help in the field.
