Tusnad Eco Bear Conf

Tusnad Eco Bear Conf TusnadEcoBearConf

A conference about people and large carnivore, about coexistence. 🇭🇺 TusnadEcoBearFest, tematikus diákfesztivál – 2025.

október 23–24., Tusnádfürdő
Október 23–24-én, csütörtökön és pénteken kerül megrendezésre Tusnádfürdő sportcsarnokában a TusnadEcoBearFest, amelynek központi témája az ember–medve együttélés. A kétnapos fesztivál változatos programjaival elsősorban általános iskolás gyerekeket, családokat szólít meg. A rendezvény célja, hogy a résztvevők játékos és élményszerű formában szerezzenek ismereteket a ba

rnamedve viselkedéséről, környezeti szerepéről, valamint az együttélés lehetőségeiről. A fesztivál programkínálata széles spektrumot ölel fel. A kézműveskedés iránt érdeklődők kipróbálhatják a nemezelést, ahol természetes anyagok felhasználásával készíthetnek különféle tárgyakat, emellett barkácsolós foglalkozások is várják őket, ahol kézi és gépi szerszámok segítségével maguk alkothatnak használati vagy dísztárgyakat. A tudományos érdeklődésű fiatalok látványos kísérletek révén nyerhetnek betekintést a fizika, kémia és biológia világába, miközben mikroszkóp alatt is megfigyelhetik a természet apró titkait. A közösségi élményt erősítik a trustbuilding-jellegű feladatok, valamint a játékos programok, ahol ügyesség, nevetés és némi mozgás kíséri az együttműködést. Emellett lesz lehetőség célbalövést kipróbálni biztonságos lézerfegyverrel is. A természetvédelmi vetélkedő lehetőséget ad arra, hogy a résztvevők megismerkedjenek a Csomád-hegység növény- és állatvilágával, valamint egy túra során ellátogassanak a Sólyomkőhöz. A tudományos ismeretterjesztés sem marad el: előadás hangzik el a Szent Anna-tó védelmének kihívásairól, valamint egy állatorvos mesél az intervenciós csapat munkájáról. A résztvevők az újraélesztés alapjaival is megismerkedhetnek, ahol a „páciens” szerepét egy nagy plüssmaci tölti be. A fesztivál különleges élménye lesz a „Medve barlangjában” (TusnadEcoBearCave látogatóterem) zajló oktatóprogram, ahol a látogatók interaktív módon ismerkedhetnek meg a barnamedvék életével, viselkedésével és a velük való békés együttélés lehetőségeivel. A TusnadEcoBearFest tehát nem csupán szórakoztató családi rendezvény, hanem egyben fontos oktatási és szemléletformáló esemény is. A szervezők célja, hogy minden résztvevő közelebb kerüljön a természethez, megismerje a barnamedvék valódi szerepét ökoszisztémánkban, és megtapasztalja, hogyan lehet velük harmóniában élni. Az eseményre több száz diák regisztrált már és további csoportos regisztrációkat várunk. A fesztivál a CERV projekt (101146879) „Együttélés a medvékkel – a természetvédelem párbeszédet igényel!” keretében valósul meg, az Európai Unió támogatásával, valamint a ProjectBag Egyesület (Băile Tușnad és környéke ökoturisztikai desztináció menedzsment egység), Tusnádfürdő Polgármesteri Hivatala, a WWF Románia, a WWF Bulgária, a WWF Magyarország, a BOKU Egyetem (Ausztria) és a New Horizons Bulgaria közreműködésével. A konferenciát továbbá támogatják:
• a „TusnadEcoBear: Connect & Conserve” projekt, amely a Bears in Mind alapítvány finanszírozásában valósul meg;
• a „Co-creating coexistence: Advancing policies, practices, and stakeholder engagement for integrating wildlife and livestock into sustainable multi-functional landscapes in Europe” projekt, amelyet az Európai Unió Horizon Europe – Kutatási és Innovációs programja finanszíroz (támogatási szerződés száma: 101181958);

🇹🇩 TusnadEcoBearFest – festival tematic pentru copii – 21–24 octombrie 2025, Băile Tușnad
În perioada 23–24 octombrie (joi și vineri), la sala de sport din Băile Tușnad va avea loc TusnadEcoBearFest, având ca temă principală coexistența dintre oameni și urși. Festivalul de două zile propune un program variat, adresat în special elevilor și familiilor. Scopul evenimentului este ca participanții să dobândească, într-o manieră jucăușă și interactivă, cunoștințe despre comportamentul ursului brun, rolul său ecologic și posibilitățile de coexistență. Programul festivalului acoperă o gamă largă de activități. Cei pasionați de meșteșuguri pot încerca împâslirea lânii folosind materiale naturale, iar participanții creativi pot lua parte la ateliere de bricolaj pentru a realiza obiecte decorative sau practice, utilizând atât unelte manuale, cât și electrice. Tinerii interesați de știință vor putea urmări experimente spectaculoase de fizică, chimie și biologie, dar și observații la microscop ale unor detalii ascunse ale naturii. Activitățile de tip trust-building și jocurile interactive vor stimula spiritul de echipă, umorul și colaborarea, iar cei doritori vor putea încerca tirul la țintă cu arme laser sigure. Concursurile de mediu și drumețiile ghidate le vor permite participanților să descopere flora și fauna Munților Ciomad, precum și să viziteze Piatra Șoimilor. Prezentările științifice nu vor lipsi: una dintre ele va aborda provocările protejării Lacului Sfânta Ana, iar un medic veterinar va povesti despre activitatea echipei de intervenție. În completarea acestei demonstrații, participanții vor putea învăța bazele resuscitării, având ca „pacient” un ursuleț mare de pluș. Un moment deosebit al festivalului va fi programul educațional „Peștera Ursului” (sala de vizitare TusnadEcoBearCave), unde vizitatorii vor putea explora într-un mod interactiv viața, comportamentul și coexistența pașnică a urșilor bruni. Astfel, TusnadEcoBearFest nu este doar un eveniment de familie plin de distracție, ci și o ocazie importantă de educație și conștientizare. Organizatorii își propun să apropie participanții de natură, să sublinieze rolul real al ursului brun în ecosistem și să arate cm putem trăi în armonie cu acesta. La eveniment s-au înregistrat deja câteva sute de studenți și așteptăm în continuare înscrieri în grup. Festivalul este organizată în cadrul proiectului CERV (101146879) „Coexistența cu urșii – Conservarea are nevoie de Conversație!”, finanțat de Uniunea Europeană, și implementată cu sprijinul Asociației ProjectBag (Unitatea de Management al Destinației ecoturistice Băile Tușnad și Împrejurimi), Primăria Băile Tușnad și WWF România. Conferința este sprijinită, de asemenea, de:
• proiectul „TusnadEcoBear: Connect & Conserve”, finanțat de fundația Bears in Mind;
• proiectul „Co-creating coexistence: Advancing policies, practices, and stakeholder engagement for integrating wildlife and livestock into sustainable multi-functional landscapes in Europe”, finanțat de programul Horizon Europe – Cercetare și Inovare al Uniunii Europene (acord de finanțare nr. 101181958);

🌟 KEYNOTE SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT: Christian-Radu Chereji
We are honored to welcome Christian-Radu Chereji, a leading expert in conflict analysis and the human dimensions of conservation, as a Keynote Speaker at the 5th Conference!

Christian-Radu is the Associate Dean of FSPAC and Director of the Conflict Studies Center at Babeș-Bolyai University. With extensive field experience across Romania, the Balkans, and Africa, he specializes in the "invisible" social infrastructures—the informal norms and community-based mechanisms that prevent conflict and sustain cooperation in natural resource management.

As he often notes from his fieldwork in the Apuseni Mountains: "Local shepherds can often predict bear movements more accurately than official wildlife reports, usually over coffee, not GPS data."

At , Christian-Radu Chereji will explore:
✅ The role of informal governance in preventing socio-environmental conflicts.
✅ Stakeholder intelligence and community-based resource management.
✅ How local traditions and social infrastructures sustain human-wildlife coexistence beyond formal institutions.

His insights will provide a crucial bridge between scientific data and the lived reality of local communities.
