 In 2012, after a series of consultations, it was decided to transform what was “WFF” into the new formula, that of “WWFF”

On the WWFF website you can find information about the actions that will take place on this occasion. https://wwff.co/2022/09/10th-anniversary-activity-weekend/

The YOFF group collaborated, both in the development of the program, and with a set of diplomas that were and are issued to those who participate in the WWFF programs.

On the occasion of its 10th anniversary, YOFF offers a set of diplomas for the participants from November 19 – 20, 2022 to the “weekend activity WWFF” regardless of the country they are from.

Thus, for those who will activate (Activator)  protected areas will be the following:  Novice Class with 2 activated areas; Standard Class with 4 activated zones and Expert Class with 6 activated zones. From each activated zone, a minimum of 44 QSOs must be made between November 19, 2022 at 00:00 UTC until November 20, 2022 at 23:59 UTC. 

For those who will seek to work on those from the protected areas (Hunter) there will be the following: Novice Class for 10 different areas; Standard Class for 20 different areas and Expert Class for 30 different areas. A special diploma will be awarded to the station with the most protected areas worked during the “weekend activity WWFF”

We hereby invite you to try to leave the house, for a few hours, together with a radio equipment and activate one or more protected areas from the WWFF list. Not only in this “WWFF activity weekend” but also on any other occasion. If you have done this, do not forget to send the log with the connections made, in ADIF format, to fenyo3jwATyahoo.com

On the site  wff-yo.blogspot.com you can find a lot of information, you just have to view it!

The fourth annual operating event, Get your Park On! Celebrating Earth Science Week will occur October 8-16, 2022. The event is open to all WWFF Activators and Hunters and is sponsored by the U.S. (KFF) affiliate of World Wide Flora and Fauna (WWFF).

This year again will be an International event inviting all Activators through the world to participate. Hunters everywhere are invited to search out and contact Activators everywhere, making this truly a worldwide, DX event.

Get Your Park ON! will start October 8 at 0000 UTC and run through October 16 at 2359 UTC. These dates include the full weekends on each side of Earth Science Week.

This year will include Get Your Park ON! Celebrating Earth Science Week Special Event Stations (GYPO SES). These stations will be active from KFF parks throughout the week operating with 1×1 callsigns, e.g., N5G. Hunters are encouraged to work as many of these Special Event Stations as possible, with special recognition given to those working ten or more.

A complete list of the Special Event Stations has been posted on WWFF and WWFF-KFF Facebook pages. Their operating plans and schedules will be posted on their individual QRZ pages.

Since October 1998, the American Geosciences Institute has organized Earth Science Week, a national and international event. They do this to help the public gain a better understanding and appreciation for the Earth sciences and to encourage stewardship of the Earth, a common goal shared by World Wide Flora and Fauna. Both programs encourage their participants to get outside and enjoy nature.

More information on rules, web sites, awards, etc. can be found on wwff.us.

On September 26, 2022, it will be 10 years since Goran Savic YT2A left us. Goran was real, a sincere lover of the Flora and Fauna program, a pioneer of these activities in Serbia and our first big activator.
The YUFF team chose the date of his tragic death for the Day of Serbian Flora and Fauna, thereby expressing respect for everything he has done for our movement and the YUFF program.
We invite you on Sunday 18.09.2022. from 00:00 to 23:59 UTC to take part in
EIGHTH OPEN DAY OF SERBIAN FLORA AND FAUNA COMMEMORATION DAY GORAN SAVIĆ YT2A
