Expected Results (EN):

By the end of project implementation, in RO-UA project target area (Maramures, Suceava counties, Ivano Frankivsk, Zakarpattia regions) framework conditions for cooperation, innovation and research related to harmonized responsible forestry practices concerning the „deadwood” management are enabled, thus aiming for increasing forest ecosystem long term productivity, their resilience to climate change and biodiversity conservation; The importance of deadwood management is acknowledged and innovative approach for increasing forest resilience is developed and demonstrated via best practice implementation for dead wood management in production forests in RO-UA project target area by the end of project implementation; Promotion and sustainability of scientific research results on forest ecosystems' long term productivity and resilience to climate change is ensured in RO-UA project target area by the end of project implementation via building capacity and expertise for final beneficiaries, advocacy work and creating the preconditions for specific research continuation.
