There are plethora of environmental changes and anthropogenic pressuresat the Akrotiri peninsulaand it is essential to study and try to understand how human induced changes affect insect populations. As a first step, we hope to motivate people of all ages to observe and record insects and other arthropods and discover the beauty we see in them but also learn about the countless services that insects provide us with.
We run a number of citizen science initiatives and raising awareness programmes forvisitors, local residents and schools to familiarize them with the arthropod fauna of the Akrotiri Peninsula. If you want to find out more about these programmes email us!
