The Limestone landscapes and Conservation in Slovenia with Nika Debeljak

In the fourth webinar in our series, ‘Our Limestone Landscapes’, we will hear from Nika Debeljak from Institute for Nature Conservation of the Republic of Slovenia.
More than 40 % of Slovenian territory is made up of limestone. Diversity of the limestone landscapes here varies from alpine to lowland forms and from surface to underground forms. This talk will introduce the wonderful diversity of these limestone landscapes in Slovenia and also present efforts to preserve their natural and cultural heritage.
Nika Debeljak finished Biology at the Biotechnical Faculty, University of Ljubljana. She carried out her doctoral research at the King Park and Botanic Garden, Perth, Australia. Upon completion of her studies, she worked at the University of Ljubljana, Department of Biology.

Since 2010 she has been managing various projects in the field of nature conservation, among others projects “Conservation and Management of Freshwater Wetlands in Slovenia (WETMAN) and Conservation and management of dry grasslands in Eastern Slovenia (LIFE TO GRASSLANDS).
