The Slovenian Ministry of Local Self-Government, Cohesion, and Regional Development has approved additional European Union funds totaling 5.75 million euros for environmental restoration projects in Slovenia. These funds are directed toward two specific initiatives aimed at improving the condition of species and habitats within the Natura 2000 areas of Pohorje–Pohorka and Barja and wet meadows–MOČvira. The European Regional Development Fund will contribute 5.75 million euros to these efforts, which focus on restoring threatened habitats and preserving biodiversity. One of the projects, 'Improvement of Species and Habitat Conditions in the Area of Natura 2000 Pohorje – Pohorka 2,' has received 4.7 million euros. This project aims to restore degraded habitats, improve living conditions for endangered species, and establish ecological corridors to support long-term biodiversity conservation. The project will run from January 2026 to October 2029 and involves collaboration between several institutions including the Slovenian Environment Agency, Forest Service, and local municipalities.
