Ecological networks

Wolf

The background report which is part of the dossier "Ecological networks" contains relevant information on the instruments that play an important role in the establishment of ecological networks at global, pan-European, European, and national level. Although this report makes no claim to be exhaustive, it provides brief information on the most important instruments, such as conventions, legislation, regulations and programmes connected with ecological networks. In addition to the report, news, publications and links provide further information on the topic.
The idea for realising this dossier was borne in the frame of the seminar "Creation of ecological networks between alpine protected areas" which was organised by the Alpine Network of Protected Areas (ALPARC) on 7 and 8 November 2005 in Berchtesgaden, Germany.
The dossier was created thanks to the support of ALPARC and CIPRA and that of the German Environment Ministry, which bore the costs of translating it into French, German, Italian and Slovenian, and, last but not least, thanks to the experts who contributed their knowledge without remuneration.
