Abstract
At the annual Summer School organized by the IUNR, the University of Warsaw (Poland) and the Kherson State University (Ukraine), an international group of students can explore advanced methods for surveying and monitoring biodiversity, alternating between two permanent study sites in Switzerland and Poland. In 2023, the Summer School returned to Parc Ela in Grisons, where a motivated group of 18 Swiss, Polish, and Ukrainian students surveyed the biodiversity of vascular plants, small mammals, and orthopterans in an unspoiled alpine landscape in the Albula valley. Here, four of them talk about their experiences and scientific aspirations
