Protecting biodiversity at NATURA 2000 sites and other protected areas from natural hazards through a certified framework for cross-border education, training and support of civil protection volunteers based on innovation and new technologies.
The overall objective of the project is the protection of NATURA 2000 and other protected areas from natural hazards through a certified framework for education, training and support of civil protection volunteers on a joint cross-border basis and this links directly to the Programme’s Thematic Objective 06 “Preserving and protecting the environment and promoting resource efficiency” in the Interreg V-A “Greece-Bulgaria 2014-2020” Cooperation Programme.
The project’s main objective is the enforcement of the cross-border biodiversity resilience of specific protected areas in both countries against disasters or exceptional circumstances occurring after natural hazards such as wildfires and floods, and this is aimed to contribute to the Programme’s specific objective 5 “To enhance the effectiveness of biodiversity protection activities”.
The Project is co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and by national funds of the countries participating in the Interreg V-A “Greece-Bulgaria 2014-2020” Cooperation Programme
