Contribute to one of the world's largest collaborative citizen science projects (covering more than 400 regions), which involves collecting data on urban biodiversity for scientific, management and conservation purposes.
Initiated by the California Academy of Sciences and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, this global challenge invites everyone to observe the living world around them: plants, animals, mushrooms. and so on, to advance science.
Embark on a search for species and learn more about the biodiversity that surrounds us in Luxembourg City, thanks to our biodiversity experts and botanists who will guide the walk. It is also a unique opportunity to see your city in a different perspective!
