Biotope of the year
The Biotope of the Year has been proclaimed annually since 1988 by the Hessen Nature Conservation Center in order to draw attention to the threat to these habitats . Since 1996 the election has been for two years.
The selection of the biotope of the year was based on the endangerment of the habitat by humans.
After reducing the workforce at the nature conservation center to around 50 percent as part of the “Safe Future” renovation campaign by the State of Hesse and the resulting significant capacity bottlenecks, no further biotope of the year was named from 2006 to 2009. Starting in 2010, the NABU local group Seeheim-Jugenheim annually names the biotope of the year.
