Creation of a network of nature sanctuaries in volunteer communes belonging to the Regional Nature Park of the Vosges du Nord
Summary
The Regional Nature Park of the Vosges du Nord is made up of 111 municipalities. A call for projects "designate a sanctuary" was sent to the Park's communes in June 2015.
