Arriba a Castelldefels la novena edició del Bioblitz metropolità

El Bioblitz metropolità torna a Castelldefels

This weekend, specifically on **May 23 and 24**, the ninth edition of the **Metropolitan Bioblitz** arrives at **Castelldefels**. This initiative is organized by the **Metropolitan Area of Barcelona (AMB)** with the collaboration of local councils, including Castelldefels, and aims to involve residents in counting flora and fauna present in dune ecosystems.

What is the Bioblitz? It is a citizen science initiative that seeks to conduct a participatory census of species in metropolitan parks and beaches, helping to create a snapshot of local biodiversity. Participants are encouraged to observe and appreciate the importance of these environments for healthy ecosystem functioning. This year’s Bioblitz coincides with the **Biodiversity Fortnight** from May 22 to June 5 and the **World Environment Day** on June 5.

Details of the events in Castelldefels

In Castelldefels, two special environmental activities, known as Jugatecambientals, will be held this weekend in relation to the Bioblitz. On Saturday, May 23, from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM, the **Natur@ula Space at Baixador**, accessed via Avenue Republic Argentina, will host a special Jugatecambiental aimed at creating an inventory of dune ecosystem species.

Sunday, May 24, will feature another event from **11:30 AM to 1:30 PM** at the **Natur@ula Space – Biblioplatja** (on the beachfront in front of the Park del Mar), which will include family friendly environmental activities and play areas.
