This forward-thinking nature initiative seeks to protect the region's native plants and will allow you to meet students from other programs. You'll participate in a special conservation mission in an area near the Sousa River (Gondomar), which has great natural and cultural value. With your help and that of other students from different programs, this work will complement the efforts of the Municipality of Gondomar and the FUTURO/CRE.Porto project in controlling invasive species and restoring the region's native biodiversity.
