Barbara Reitler <br>
WLE liaison at the Austrian Alpine Club


[[file:BarbaraReitler creditOEAV.jpg|mini|Barbara Reitler, Österreichischer Alpenverein]]
Austria has unique natural monuments and valuable nature conservation sites, but who is aware of them? Often they are insufficiently marked, sometimes their limits and their environmental protection status is elusive even to experts. As part of Wiki Loves Earth (WLE), we aspire to raise awareness of our natural heritage via Wikipedia and to furnish the information necessary for this purpose. And since a strong rope team always accomplishes more, we cooperate with people who know the most gorgeous nooks of Austria like the back of their hand. One of them is Barbara Reitler from the Austrian Alpine Club who supported our WLE photo jury in 2015.

'''What contribution can free knowledge make toward nature conversation and environmental protection in Austria?'''
'''What contribution can free knowledge make toward nature conversation and environmental protection in Austria?'''
:Access to knowledge is an important factor for any form of emancipation. It allows, for instance, laypeople to educate themselves about topics that are or previously were a mystery to them. And if, into the bargain, it is all straightforward and comprehensible as well and freely accessible and trustworthy at the same time, then it becomes twice as easy.

Let's take, for example, the Aarhus Convention: an international agreement that regulates access to information on the one hand, but also public participation in decision-making procedures and access to courts in environmental matters on the other – and grants all individuals rights with respect to environmental protection.

:Now let's assume I was affected by a development project, did not know much about environmental law etc., but did not want to be reduced to watching helplessly as others make the decisions and present me with accomplished facts. Then I would look around in the internet and research my options, stumble upon the Aarhus Convention that is still more or less unknown to the general public and realise that I, as a private individual, also have the right to be heard with respect to such environmental issues.

:The Wikipedians I had the pleasure to meet were all absolute idealists – and experts as well. They were involved with a degree of ambition and enthusiasm that clearly provided them great satisfaction, a trait that puts me very much in mind of my colleagues at the Alpine Club. Without any monetary incentive whatsoever. It is these idealists, who are the very life and blood of such projects, and we must keep this in mind and their contributions should not be taken for granted.
