and formally joined the NETCET City Network, Adriatic Cities Together for Conservation of Cetaceans and Sea Turtles within the framework of the Adriatic IPA Crossborder Cooperation.

Representatives of the Institute of Marine Biology presented the various activities realised within the NETCET project, as well as project goals that have yet to be achieved, both on national and international level. The goal of NETCET City Network is to raise awareness of the cities’ role in conservation of marine turtles and cetaceans. The Municipality of Kotor will be involved in awareness-raising and will take part in activities that will directly lower the risks threatening these marine animals.

Representatives of the Municipality of Kotor will be invited to NETCET final conference, which will be held in Venice in July, 2015, and participate in a workshop in which they will share their experiences, with the aim of defining new project activities.
