Abstract
This project seeks to establish public-private partnerships in the Dinaric Arc Ecoregion in South-Eastern Europe. It includes the development of six business plans and at least the same number of public-private partnerships in southeast Europe and is based on thorough Protected Area need assessments. It also finds a context of political commitment as expressed in the Big Win joint statement and commitments at CBD COP 9 in 2008, and again, in the joint statement of Dinaric countries at the recent SBSTTA meeting in Nairobi.
Objective
Environmental authorities responsible for managing protected areas in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, and Serbia have the knowledge, skills and tools to ensure the financial sustainability in the PA pilot sites and the creation of favourable conditions allows the successful collaboration with private sector initiatives.
