Description
The fragmentation of habitats and the disturbance of the ecological connectivity of the buffer zone and the KNP is progressing due to the pressure of land use and mass tourism. Project actions are in line with EU Green Deal and Biodiversity Strategy 2030 (fostering conservation of biodiversity and state of the species and habitats).
In order to effectively counteract this pressure, it is necessary to provide reliable evidence about the role and function of ecological corridors (complex monitoring) into the process of administrative proceedings and building social capital for their protection (Partnership for green infrastr. and sustain. tourism). Also, improvement of the condition of hydrogenic ecosystems and the conservation status of species and raising awareness on ecological connectivity will be conducted.
Implement the tools for the protection plan (monitoring), improve the condition of ecosystems (footbridges above wetlands, fencing mount. grasslands), ident. ecological corridors esp. in buffer zone.
Stakeholders operating in KNP and its buffer zone, National Park services, self.gov. authorities, NGOs, investors, shelter leaseholders, and the general public, involved in project actions.
