7 successful and inspiring innovative private land conservation structures in Europe were selected and further analysed. Otto von Arnold from the Tullstorp Stream Project (Sweden / Project structure – Landowners association) & Christophe Lenaerts from the NATO airfield case in Flanders (Belgium/ NGO structure) will participate and answer your questions during this webinar. What is threatening their structure and project? How does it impact their activities? What are the opportunities they can identify in this evolving world? Key actions to survive and adapt were defined for each case and we look forward to share it amongst the community of private land conservation.
In the framework of this Life+ project “Land Is For Ever”, private land conservation tools and their use were studied. Discover those tools, their specificities and use around the world. How are they instrumented in the United States, what’s the key to success? And how to increase their use, particularly in Europe? A round table discussion of 20 minutes will gather diverse stakeholders such as private land owners, conservation NGO’s, European Commission representative and actors from the sector.
