PONT - Prespa Ohrid Nature Trust
Details
Description
Prespa Ohrid Nature Trust (ΡΟΝΤ) was created to financially contribute to the growing environmental needs of the transboundary Prespa area. PONT is a Conservation Trust Fund (CTF) founded at the end of 2015 as an independent legal entity, based on the recommendations of a scoping study carried out by WWF Greece. PONT is the 1st transboundary CTF in the Balkans and the 8th in the world. Over the last 20 years, more than 50 CTFs have been created around the globe, aiming to ameliorate environmental management primarily on a national level.
The mission of PONT is to “provide long-term financing for the conservation and sustainable management of biological diversity, natural processes and ecosystem services in Prespa and its wider area for the benefit of nature and people in the region.”
