Bioprospect

aim of the project is to contribute in the exploration and documentation of the bioprospects of forested protected areas in the balkan-med region. this involves the mapping, assessment modelling and valuation of forest ecosystem services originating from forest resources and biodiversity within the balkan-med region. through the actions foreseen within bioprospect, project partners will share scientific knowledge, forest management practices, policies and regulations, develop common and shared tools for the economic valuation of biodiversity and forest ecosystem services, with emphasis on the cross-border genetic pool and bioprospect, contributing in the establishment of a roadmap for bioprospect based governance. eventually, bioprospect project aims to give a new impetus on the management, conservation, preservation and sustainable capitalization of forest biodiversity and ecosystem services in the balkan-med region.
