Natura 2000 Biogeographical Process
Fully implement the Birds and Habitats Direc9ve Maintain and restore ecosystems and their services
Increase the contribu:on of agriculture and forestry to maintaining and enhancing biodiversity
Ensure the sustainable use of fisheries resources
Combat Invasive Aliens Species
Help avert global biodiversity loss
Working in collabora8on, the Process & the LIFE Programme help stakeholders to strengthen the Natura 2000 network and achieving
favourable conserva8on status for habitats and species.

Natura 2000 Biogeographical Process
Natura 2000 & the Process The Process is:
– A prac:cal framework for netowrking and knowledge building
The process involves: – Member states and stakeholders
The proces aims are: – Implementa9on of Natura 2000
– Achieve Favourable Conserva9on Status By means of
– Sharing experiences – Crea:ng coopera:ve ac9ons.

Natura 2000 Biogeographical Process
Key steps …
Steps Outcomes 1 Where are we? Know what prac:cal measures and ac:ons are required to
maintain or improve habitats’ condi:on and status.
2 Agree priori:es for progress Common problems and issues defined and scope for coopera:ve ac:ons iden:fied.
3 Agree what we need to do Collabora:ve ac:ons for shared priori:es, matched by commitments to act on the priori:es so that work gets done.
4 Agree what, when, where & who (where possible)
Produce a :metable of follow-‐up ac:ons (or a :metable to confirm the proposed ac:ons).
A C T
Network & Communicate: Share knowledge and best prac:ce, publish results of networking events
Through workshops, study visits, expert mee:ngs etc. and by using the Natura 2000 PlaWorm – e.g. share news about your projects, your experience, ‘sign-‐up’ your organisa:on/ yourself, provide a news ar:cle, promote available guidance etc.)
There are four steps involved in the Process to achieve specific outcomes …
