Successful protection of nature can only be achieved through active engagement of all members of society and especially the local community living in the protected area.

  • Public participation in the environmental procedures at the county level – Legislation on public participation on county level – Environmental Impact Assessment Procedures / Assessment of Acceptability for Ecological Network – Theory and Practice (Available only in the Croatian language)

Only by looking and observing public opinion and allowing and providing feedback, it is possible to build public confidence in the implementation of these procedures and raise the quality of public participation in environmental proceedings.

Forest Park Marjan represents the most valuable part of nature in the city of Split and its area should not be reduced due to the services it provides for all residents of Split and other visitors.
