A structured network for integration of climate knowledge into policy and territorial planning (ORIENTGATE)
Start date: Jun 30, 2012, End date: Dec 30, 2014,
The OrientGate project will foster concerted and coordinated climate adaptation actions across the SEE region. The project will explore climate risks faced by coastal, rural and urban communities; contribute to a better understanding of the impact of climate variability and change on water regimes, forests and agro-ecosystems; and analyse specific adaptation needs in the hydroelectricity, agro-ali ...

Sustainable Mobility and Tourism in Sensitive Areas of the Alps and the Carpathians (ACCESS2MOUNTAIN)
Start date: Apr 30, 2011, End date: Apr 29, 2014,
The Alpine and the Carpathian Conventions state sustainable tourism mobility as a challenge and call for cooperation on this topic among the countries of these mountain regions. In particular sustainable tourist mobility is not well-developed in mountainous regions, especially in South-East Europe, as mountain regions are lacking sufficient sustainable transport facilities and facing major ecologi ...

Climate Change Adaptation by Spatial Planning in the Alpine Space (CLISP)
Start date: Aug 31, 2008, End date: Aug 30, 2011,
Climate change impacts, esp. growing risks from natural hazards, increasingly threaten settlements, infrastructure, lives and future development in the Alpine Space. CLISP aims at preventing increasing climate change-related spatial conflicts, vulnerability, damages and costs by providing "climate proof" spatial planning solutions as a substantial basis for future sustainable territorial developme ...

Further Development and Implementation of an EU-level Forest Monitoring System (FutMon)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,
Background
Forests cover about 30% of Europe, providing high value concerning: biodiversity; carbon sequestration; soil and water protection; and the economic contribution of goods and services. However, climate change, air pollution and changes in land use are threatening the health, stability and sustainability of forests and their values.
On top of th ...

Network Mountain Forest (NMF)
Start date: Dec 31, 2003, End date: Sep 29, 2007,
The operation Network Mountain Forest (NMF) focuses on concerted actions for the enhancement of mountain and protective forests and associated potentials for disaster prevention (e.g., avalanches, land slides). Due to the high sensitivity of mountain forests and their importance for protective measures, several relevant transboundary and/or EU measures have been developed, such as the Alpine Conve ...

Integrated Land Use Planning and River Basin Management (ILUP)
Start date: Dec 31, 2001, End date: Dec 30, 2006,
The risk potential in river basins has increased strongly due to the enormous use pressure. In view of the demographic concentration in river basins and potential climate changes, safety in valleys is only possible if protective water management and other disciplines cooperate. In selected river basins, exemplary new methods are being tested, strategies developed and pilot projects implemented. Du ...
