It supports efforts to develop the future system of conservation areas and improves the living conditions of the local inhabitants. The project follows up and builds on the currently ongoing predecessor project of the BMU’s International Climate Protection Initiative ‘08_II_026_BLR_K_RSPB Torfmoore’ (peat bogs).
