We are launching today a call for management authorities of European National Parks and other protected areas to collaborate with our research team in FIDELIO in order to:

• Explore the importance of protected areas for local communities before, during and after the pandemic
• Identify effective policy tools that can promote behavioural change in users when visiting protected areas during COVID
• Contribute in a network of communication (via workshops co-hosted with Europarc) between European protected areas to exchange information and experiences regarding COVID-19 management issues.
