EU Platform on Coexistence between People and Large Carnivores

Launch and first working session of the EU platform on Coexistence between People and Large Carnivores

Large carnivore conservation is a topic that involves a diversity of stakeholders that includes hunters, foresters, livestock producers, reindeer herders, landowners, rural people, conservation organisations and the wider public. All these groups are influenced by and perceive large carnivores in different ways, and in some cases these differences can be the foundation of conflicts. The EU Platform on Coexistence between People and Large Carnivores is a grouping of organisations representing different interests groups which have agreed a joint mission:

"To promote ways and means to minimize, and wherever possible find solutions to, conflicts between human interests and the presence of large carnivore species, by exchanging knowledge and by working together in an open-ended, constructive and mutually respectful way"

A video presenting the EU Platform and regional platforms is available here:
