Overview

The Mediterranean Institute for Nature and Anthropos (MedINA), established in 2003, is a non-profit organization based in Athens, Greece, with the aim of contributing to the development of a harmonious relationship between Humankind and Nature for the wellbeing of all. Through research, working with communities, exchanging knowledge and ideas and networking, we inspire people to recognise the value and connection between our natural and cultural heritage, and to work towards a just and sustainable future in the Mediterranean and beyond. Working at the crossroads of nature and culture, MedINA's multidisciplinary team is made up of experts in the fields of ecology, forestry, sustainable development, spatial planning, archaeology, social anthropology and others. MedINA collaborates with diverse partners such as the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, UNESCO’s World Heritage Centre, the Mediterranean Consortium for Nature and Culture, the Agricultural University of Athens and many others.
