We realized early that data about biodiversity and nature
protection in Military Training Areas is scattered in CEE
countries. We need to collect and streamline data to be able
to analyse the situation, focus on priority sites, habitats
and species and to set conservation objectives.
We collect data from Military Training Areas on
general information
information on habitats, species of Community Importance
(Natura 2000) and nationally protected habitats and species
existing inventories
effect of military use on species and habitats
conservation management activities, if any
cooperation between sectors (different ministries, ministries
and NGOs)
environmental awareness of military authorities
uses by other stakeholders
Part of the data will be made public in a comprehensive database
on this website later.
If you are interested in the available information or if you
would like to help us with data collection please contact
Sarolta Tripolszky.
Meetings
Within the reconnaissance phase basic information was gathered
on national level, and the interested organisations shared
their experiences at a Working Group meeting in Moravský
Svätý Ján, Slovakia, 17-19 May 2007. After
the meeting, participants were given a guided tour to the
Zahorie Military Training Area by Ph.D Jaromil Sibl.
