South-Eastern Europe

The present volume should be read in conjunction with State of nature conservation systems in South-Eastern Europe as it represents its integral part and foundation. Both reports follow the same logic and structure, and their content is presented through the same thematic chapters. 

This report is the first comprehensive attempt to collate all the relevant information on institutional arrangements for nature conservation in the region into one coherent report. It aims to review the health of the national nature conservation systems, their suitability for purpose, the main gaps and opportunities in delivering on the many national and international policy targets, and their coherency with respect to addressing regional commonalities and priorities.
