MURALLA VIVA: WELCOME OF THE SWIFTS AND PETITIONING ECO-MANTAINANCE OF WORLD HERITAGE ROMA WALL OF LUGO (SPAIN)

On June 2011, very few citizens of Lugo got to move more than 10 associations to protest against unsustainable maintenance of Lugo´s Roman Wall, to protect swifts (and other bird) nests on UNESCO´S WORLS HERITAGE since 2000. This year, we decide to turn our pledge into art: we will welcome the swifts through dancing, theatre and other performances, linking the migration of birds to cross-border human links, brotherhood and collaboration as on family to construct the new culture we need. We also will provide info about the dangers of pesticides and ask our local gov to promote sustainable maintenance of both our cultural and natural heritage. Last, but not least, we will have a Birdwatching activity from the top of the Roman Wall lead by the GALICIAN ORNITHOLOGIC ASSOTIATION (SGO). WE INVITE YOU!
