Main outcome 2009
The Working Group Biodiversity (WG Biodiversity) met in Bordeaux in October to elaborate the working plan for 2009. The WG has given input on green networks to the EEAC statement in 2009. The WG Biodiversity is also in dialogue with the WG Agriculture in the light of the proposed conference topic for 2010 "Sustainable Land Use".
- On 16 July the WG met in Dublin, kindly hosted by the Comhar (IE). The WG advanced work on a background paper on Green Networks/Ecological Connectivity and discussed how the Biodiversity WG could input to the preparations for the EEAC Annual Conference 2010. The WG also decided to prepare an updated draft of the green infrastructure paper that feeds into the EEAC annual conference theme 2009 on sustainable European infrastructures and to give comments on the EEAC Forward Looking Paper 2009.
- The WG met on 23 October, in Dubrovnik in order to discuss the working plan for 2010.
