The TransParcNet meeting is the annual gathering of the EUROPARC’s Transboundary Protected Areas. Topic of year is “Fire and water – how to deal with ‘natural’ disasters in transboundary cooperation?”. From 20 – 23 June 2023, in the German-Dutch Nature Park Maas-Schwalm-Nette, parks managers and professionals will discuss how Transboundary Protected Areas can work together to prevent and manage “natural” disasters. The programme includes lectures, workshops, excursions and, of course, a cultural evening.
