Beschreibung
The aim of the workshop was to discuss on the basis of national case-studies and of experiences gained from other approaches such as Sustainable Forest Management, Sustainable Fisheries and the transboundary protection of high-mountain areas the following issues:
• If the existing guidance for the implementation of the ecosystem approach is valuable in practice;
• Which existing initiatives/approaches/opportunities can be built upon and what possible solutions there are to overcome identified obstacles for the implementation of the ecosystem approach in Central and Eastern Europe;
• If there are synergies between the ecosystem approach of the CBD and other approaches, which might be used to reach the goals of the Convention.
