Since 2015, Konnekt Association has been supporting young people - high school and university students - in their conscious journey of self-discovery. Our goal is to help the growing generation develop sufficient self-awareness and adapt to the dynamic changes of the labor market, so they can find their place and live a fulfilled and content life as adults.

The number of visitors to Hungarian forests - and especially to the areas managed by the Pilisi Parkerdo - has increased significantly in recent years, especially during and after the pandemic. In addition to a healthy and safe environment, the role of forests has also become more valuable in protecting against the increasingly powerful effects of climate change. The Pilis Park Forest, seeing and sensing the undoubtedly growing social interest and demand for forests, founded the Forests for Commonweal Foundation in the winter of 2020, which supports initiatives that, in addition to protecting the natural and human environment and developing environmental culture, serve the enrichment of our natural resources, biodiversity, and climate protection. The good condition of forests is a public interest - that is, a public good - but the preservation and use of areas in their natural state is the result of the cooperation of many disciplines, professionals, and decision-makers, which is why partnership is a defining element of the Foundation's operation. Pilisi Parkerdo manages the forests of the wider surroundings of the capital. The institution operates in an area where there are millennia-old traditions of coexistence and harmony between people and nature. Today's sustainable forest management also serves to preserve natural values, while providing opportunities for healthy recreation: there are 30 million visitors in the parks / forests annually. Pilisi Parkerdo was celebrating its 50th anniversary - while the forest itself is existing for several hundreds of years, manages the country's largest ecotourism infrastructure, which offers recreational opportunities for hikers, cyclists and horse riders alike. The founders of Pilisi Parkerdo had a unique goal: to develop and implement a forest management model that prioritizes the tourist and cultural role of forests and places great emphasis on the protection of the landscape and nature.

EHEES, Elephant Haven, European elephant sanctuary, is a sanctuary/retirement home for elephants from European zoos and circuses, which answers a legal need and requests from private owners. EHEES is a care center which offers the elephants a place for life and where their natural needs are respected and their diet is appropriate. It enables them to be re-socialized and rehabilitated in a protected environment. This is the true story of Gandhi and Delhi, Asian elephants, our two first retired residents in EHEES, the only elephant sanctuary in Europe. Indeed, in recent years, it has become both appropriate and necessary to create elephant placement centers in Europe. Private elephant owners, animal parks, zoos and other organizations may need a place for their elephant(s) to live. Almost all European countries ban wild animals from circuses, including France, where EHEES is situated. Bringing them back to their country of origin is not always possible. There was no place for housing the elephants in Europe. Retired elephants from zoos and circuses, like Gandhi and Delhi, our 2 first residents, have now a place for life. They, and the future other residents of Elephant Haven, need a lot of attention. Elephant Haven is expanding to be able to offer more elephants a place for life. Informative programmes about elephants and their behavior, in captivity and in the wild, will be organized to have a better understanding of elephants, as well as local fauna and flora. All this encourages a re-connection with nature and with all her creatures, to raise awareness and respect for the environment.
