Biodiversity Protection

Project Summary

This project in the Morava floodplain, Tatras forests, and Eastern Carpathians is developing management techniques for a biodiversity protection program, a conservation program to develop revenue generation mechanisms for the protected area system, and a program to provide support for project management coordination at the national level and at the three selected zones. Innovative features include an environmental NGO small grants program, and the development of a tri-national trans-border trust to maintain the coordinated management of the international biosphere reserve in Eastern Carpathians.
