Mediterranean Alliance for Nature and Culture

We are proud to announce the change of name from Rooted Everyday to Mediterranean Alliance for Nature & Culture!
The name change is a result of a rebranding effort designed to better mirror the nature of our work and convey our ceaseless contribution to the environmental, social and economic sphere in the Mediterranean.
Thanks to your continued support and our shared belief that nature and culture are profoundly interconnected and can deliver environmental, social and economic benefits to society, we’ll be continuing our Rooted Everyday campaign work and much more in the new Alliance.
By broadening our network of partners who work towards sustaining Mediterranean cultural landscapes, our current projects will remain at the heart of our work in order to spread knowledge, share resources, empower producers and advocate for biodiversity and traditional livelihoods.
We’ll be sharing more news from the field and the current focus of our campaign work is being pulled together in a special section to be referenced and celebrated. You can expect more access to our research on cultural landscapes and traditional cultural practices as we amplify our efforts for local communities and the environment.
All the changes will become effective in our upcoming new website at https://www.mednatureculture.org/.
Our newly formed Alliance will go even further in implementing the MAVA Foundation’s action plan to effectively conserve biodiversity and maintain the wellbeing of communities.
Thank you for your support.

Al Hima Magazine 5th Issue

This edition of Al Hima magazine weaves together inspiring stories of nature conservation and community resilience, highlighting how Lebanon is being stitched back to life—one Hima at a time. The Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon (SPNL) continues its mission to preserve the country’s natural heritage by empowering local communities. A cornerstone of this effort is the BioConnect project, funded by the European Union, which has achieved three national firsts: Lebanon’s first natural park (Upper Matn), first geological park (Shouf-Jezzine), and first endowment Hima (Btekhnay).
