In 2022, Fermanagh and Omagh District Council launched its Biodiversity Strategy and associated Action Plan recognising its commitment to protect and enhance biodiversity.

The Strategy focuses on seven key themes, one of which includes Education and Outreach.

Connecting people to nature is key to the delivery of the Council’s Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan, along with wider biodiversity targets nationally and internationally. Learning about local wildlife and gaining skills in conservation empowers people to work together, and getting a wide range of people involved will foster a fundamental understanding of why action is required to benefit current and future generations.
