Did you know that part of the lower Dyfi Valley is internationally recognised as a ‘special place for people and nature’? UNESCO made it one of their ‘Biosphere Reserves’ in the 1970’s, but we have never taken advantage of this.

Modern Biosphere areas explore how local people can benefit from protecting the things they value – local knowledge, language and culture as well as the local and global environment.

After extensive local consultation, the Dyfi Biosphere Partnership asked UNESCO to re-register a much bigger area as the Dyfi Biosphere. We expect approval early in 2009.

To find out more and to join in the discussions, visit the Biosphere web site.
