Knowledge Base
This knowledge base contains information about the habitat types and species that are protected by the EC Habitats Directive and have been selected as a priority for cooperation under the Natura 2000 Biogeographical Process. Habitat type descriptions are now included in background documents per region and include key threats and pressures, management challenges as well as management practices. The main purpose of the knowledge base is to inform all parties involved or interested in Natura 2000 management about the major threats and how to manage habitat types and species in order to reach or maintain favourable conservation status.
