MEET-FUNGI: the project and the 2026 initiatives dedicated to fungal biodiversity officially kick off
On 31 January 2026, the launch event of the MEET-FUNGI project will take place in Valle Camonica (Lombardy). The project is coordinated by Federparchi, with the support of Fondazione Cariplo, and involves ISPRA as a partner alongside MicoCosmo and the Valle Camonica Mountain Community.
Following the launch event, a structured programme of outreach and training initiatives will begin and continue throughout 2026. These activities will include mycological excursions, workshops, and awareness-raising initiatives, open to the public and aimed at a broad and diverse audience.
The activities of the MEET-FUNGI project aim to promote knowledge of fungi and their role in ecosystems, raise awareness of the importance of fungal biodiversity, and encourage dialogue among institutions, the scientific community, and citizens.
All details about the project, the planned activities, and how to take part are available on the project’s website.
