Resumen

The International Expert Workshop “Nature Conservation in the Countries of Eastern Eu-rope, Caucasus and Central Asia – Lessons learnt from the transformation process and challenges for the future” took place at the International Academy for Nature Conservation, Isle of Vilm, Germany, from 29th February to 4th March 2016. Close to 60 participants and representatives of more than 40 institutions active in the field of nature conservation in Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia, including Secretariats of Multilateral Envi-ronmental Agreements (MEAs), donors, non-governmental and development cooperation organizations, UN, academia and state organizations, came together to: • Strengthen awareness of the significance of the region for global biodiversity con-servation, highlighting the need to invest in the conservation of those unique land-scapes and species with associated ecosystem services; • Highlight the consequences of the political transformation process since the 1990s for nature conservation in the region, both in terms of opportunities and challenges; • Exchange experience as to how the opportunities have been used to meeting con-servation objectives and what can be learnt from that experience; • Identify current challenges for nature conservation in the region based on concrete examples and get inspired by successful approaches to addressing them; • Define conservation priorities and ways to address those by applying innovative or proven approaches and building individual and organizational capacities; • Explore options for networking and coordination of joint activities among different countries and stakeholders.
