The Ginko project plans to build and set up birdhouses in the trees of different downtown locations, creating the Ginkotheme park.
The name of the project is inspired by Školjić Park, which houses a gorgeous, protected ginkgo tree. Birdhouses were designed by architect Ivan Juretić (HR), and in collaboration with Goran Sušić PhD (HR), the protection of birds living in the city centre was made possible. Children’s workshops were organised with the younger students of the Nikola Tesla Primary School, where they painted the birdhouses, and after placing the houses up in the trees, the children involved in the project and the citizens of Rijeka could monitor how the birds used them.
