With the covid-19 health crisis, the organization of face-to-face meetings has become very complicated. The OEC has therefore given priority to disseminating information and raising awareness among target audiences during in natura events, which present little risk of the virus spreading.
Thus, on July 24, we took part in the "Fridays of Cuscione", an event regularly organized by the manager of this Natura 2000 area, the Community of Municipalities of Alta Rocca.
The animation, carried out by two agents of the Conservatory of Invertebrates of the Corsican Environment Office, focused on the entomology of the site and addressed the question of invasive species as part of a general presentation of the insects of Corsica, as well as studies carried out, for example with INRAE, on invasive beetles.
This event enabled the OEC to provide information on the risks associated with IAS, as well as on the steps taken in this area within the framework of the two European projects ALIEM and INVALIS.
Documents were distributed to participants, including the INVALIS project brochure. This action raised awareness among 11 people, including 7 "eco-guards" agents from the Alta Rocca Community of Communes.
