The theme of our anniversary year is: \u2018to protect, strengthen and experience nature\u2019. Thirty years ago, biologist and current Chair of the Board of Trustees Regina Frey founded the PanEco Foundation, based in Berg am Irchel. Even back then, PanEco\u2019s aim was to work with the public to protect, strengthen and experience nature \u2013 in Indonesia and in Switzerland. Fifteen years ago, PanEco established the Thurauen Nature Centre in the Zurich Weinland, which is also celebrating its anniversary this year. We want to mark the occasion through a series of small, intimate events which highlight our work in nature conservation. The anniversary programme invites you on discovery tours of the Nature Centre and an evening walk in the Thurauen, offers insights into the work of the ranger service and shows the bird of prey sanctuary from a different perspective. This autumn, as part of the foundation\u2019s anniversary celebrations, a panel discussion entitled \u201830 Years of Orangutan Conservation\u2019 will take place in Winterthur, focusing on past successes and future challenges in Indonesia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
