Development of Green Infrastructure to foster ecological connectivity between Danube, Carpathian and Alps

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG VB Danube

Description

Description (EN):

Mountain regions in the Alps and the Carpathians as well as the Danube floodplain represent some of the most important (semi) natural areas in Central and South-East Europe. Economic development is increasing constantly in this area, resulting in growing pressure on the natural treasures. Transport infrastructures, spreading cities and human settlements are occupying more and more space, causing growing impact of habitat fragmentation and making genetic exchange between wildlife populations difficult. The richness in bio-geographic regions qualifies Central and South-East Europe as model for corridor functionality and the establishment of TEN-G. Facing the leading role of Protected Areas to foster habitat connectivity, in 2016, the Protected Area Networks (DANUBEPARKS, ALPARC, CNPA) formed the "ADC Net”. Their MoC - elaborated under the patronage of EUSDR PAC6 and EUSALP AG7, signed under the Alpine Convention - aims for the realization of common actions towards ecological networks in and among their respective regions, but still waiting for consequent implementation. "Three Networks, two macro-regions, one vision" is now to: - strengthen this strategic cooperation. - anchor ADC Net better on policy level. - identify joint best-practice actions to improve ecological connectivity. - elaborate an Interreg-project proposal to better connect the Alps and the Carpathians through the Danube. - qualify the Networks for future leading roles in the main project. - deliver good practice for cooperation among the EU-macro regions: on site, on operational and on policy level. The transnational Protected Area Networks as ASP form the strategic backbone of the project consortium. Two Protected Areas at the linkage of Danube and Alps, respectively, Danube and Carpathians, are responsible for the operational implementation. The project set-up and implementation involves both EUSDR PAC6 and EUSALP AG. 7.
