Io non ho paura del lupo regularly organize field events for its member, events for the general public, and all the stakeholders who can be in conflicts with the wolf.
Organisation of public events and trekking having as a topic the wolf, in areas where the species is present and with the aim of engaging the farmers/breeders/shepherds who live in that area and adopt preventive measure to coexist with wolves. The specific topic and activities of each field trip/public event might differ depending on the context, but they must always include at least a visit to a “virtuous” farmer/breeder/shepherd who can illustrate his/her experiences and issues in coexisting with the wolf.

WWF Trentino
Environmental association
In Trentino, WWF took its first steps in 1968: the first regional section in the country, directing all its energies to the protection of the last, surviving specimens of brown bears. Today, its activities include actions to counter urbanisation dynamics, direct protection of fauna and flora and environmental education also directly through the management of the only WWF Oasis in the Alps (Valtrigona) and an Oasis in Val di Non (Valli dello Sporeggio – Maso Fraton), as well as a constellation of protected plots within the Inghiaie nature area (Levico Terme).
WWF Trentino will collaborate with the project in communication and awareness raising on the issues of coexistence between wolves and human activities. The project will also support WWF Trentino in the valorisation of the Valtrigona alpine WWF Oasis as a reference point for the communication of the species and coexistence issues.

Naturschutzhunde
Environmental association
Although dogs have been used in other areas for a long time, the targeted use of dogs in nature conservation and species protection is still not widespread in Austria. Starting from a small group of committed biologists and dog handlers, the association Naturschutzhunde was founded in 2019 with the aim of promoting this type of dog work and making it better known. Currently, around 20 human-dog teams are working on various projects ranging from the detection of wolf scats, to protected insects or birds or bats killed by wind turbines.
Naturschutzhunde and the project will cooperate on two axes: information and training. We will disseminate science-based information on wolves and their return to Austria to dog-owners and especially people who work with their dogs out in the field. This will include online and practical training on wolf biology, recognising presence signs of wolves and correct behaviour when encountering wolves.
