The ANUU, the Italian Hunters’ Association for the Conservation of the Natural Environment (Member of FACE Italy), always sensitive to issues related to nature and wildlife, has established the “International Environment Award”. This award aims to enhance and encourage initiatives that support environmental conservation and promote activities in the wildlife and hunting fields.
The competition, unveiled at the National Assembly on the 50th anniversary of the Association’s founding in 2008 and now in its 13th edition, recognizes the best activities implemented and presented throughout the year.
The award is open to organisations, educational or cultural institutions, and associations, that have excelled in optimal environmental and wildlife management through:
- Sustainable use of renewable natural resources,
- Rehabilitation of degraded natural areas,
- Conservation of unique rural landscapes,
- Implementation of targeted high-quality measures to protect fauna and flora, especially in areas where hunting activities occur.
A specific set of rules has been prepared and widely disseminated to promote this initiative on environmental issues.
The International Environment Award, held annually, presents honors and mentions at each ANUU’s National Assembly.
