The IUCN is pleased to share information with you about the IUCN French National Committee "Festival of Nature" (Fête de la Nature) which has been organized in connection with World Biodiversity Day (22 May) throughout France for the past three years It is our hope that such celebrations, which reach a large number of citizens, might be replicated in other parts of the world during 2010, the International Year of Biodiversity and beyond. Our colleagues in the French National Committee would be glad to provide you with more information: uicn@uicn.fr
