Descripción
La UE y sus Estados miembros han realizado importantes esfuerzos de conservación en las últimas décadas, incluido el establecimiento de la red de áreas protegidas más grande del mundo, la red Natura 2000. Sin embargo, estos esfuerzos han demostrado ser insuficientes para detener la pérdida de biodiversidad a escala continental. ya que solo una pequeña proporción de las especies y hábitats recogidos en las Directivas de Aves y Hábitats no corren ningún riesgo previsible de extinción. La Estrategia de Biodiversidad de la UE para 2030 tiene como objetivo abordar algunos de los problemas comúnmente atribuidos al avance insuficiente para detener la pérdida de biodiversidad, como la falta de planificación a escalas adecuadas al diseñar la red de áreas protegidas o la mala integración de la conservación en diversas políticas sectoriales. Para abordar estos desafíos y ayudar a avanzar hacia una política y práctica de conservación más eficaz e integradora, INSPIRE desarrollará un marco de apoyo a la toma de decisiones novedoso para priorizar los esfuerzos de gestión en los ámbitos terrestres, de agua dulce y marinos, a la vez que se atiende a los posibles conflictos entre diferentes objetivos de gestión, usos del suelo y marinos y condiciones ambientales cambiantes. Sobre la base de la experiencia multidisciplinar de los socios participantes, INSPIRE abordará este desafío desde un punto de vista holístico, integrando dependencias entre diferentes ecosistemas en la priorización espacial de los esfuerzos de gestión. INSPIRE también tiene como objetivo integrar la conservación de la biodiversidad y otras actividades productivas, con el objetivo de reconciliar la conservación y el uso sostenible de la biodiversidad y los servicios de los ecosistemas, teniendo en cuenta las sinergias y los conflictos potenciales entre la multiplicidad de objetivos perseguidos. De esta forma, INSPIRE pretende contribuir a definir redes coherentes y bien conectadas de áreas para la gestión de la biodiversidad, no solo restringidas a áreas protegidas, buscando oportunidades de conservación de la biodiversidad también en la matriz más allá de las áreas protegidas. Finalmente, INSPIRE tiene como objetivo abordar la conservación de la biodiversidad en condiciones dinámicas, para explorar estrategias de planificación proactiva hacia una práctica de conservación de la biodiversidad más resiliente. INSPIRE utilizará tres casos de estudio para demostrar cómo se puede utilizar el marco propuesto para mejorar la toma de decisiones, con diferentes objetivos y limitaciones: el mar Egeo y sus cuencas (Grecia-Turquía), la cuenca del río Tajo, el estuario y el área marina cercana. (Portugal-España) y el lago Neusiedl y sus cuencas contribuyentes (Austria-Hungría). Con estos estudios de caso, INSPIRE cubrirá un amplio espectro de objetivos de planificación transnacionales y entre ecosistemas diferentes y desafíos ambientales. A través de una interacción continua con los responsables políticos y las partes interesadas nacionales e internacionales, INSPIRE fomentará la cogeneración de conocimientos y el desarrollo de capacidades entre las
partes interesadas, para garantizar que tanto el marco como los resultados del proyecto se ajusten al propósito y sean informativos para la toma de
decisiones en el contexto de la Estrategia de Biodiversidad para 2030.
The EU and its Member States have implemented substantial conservation efforts over the last decades, including the establishment of the world¿s
largest network of protected areas, the Natura 2000. However, these efforts have proven insufficient for halting biodiversity loss at a continental scale, as only a small proportion of species and habitats listed in the Birds and Habitats Directives are under no foreseeable risk of extinction. The EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 aims at addressing some of the issues commonly blamed to the insufficient advance towards halting biodiversity loss, such as the lack of planning at adequate scales when designing the network of protected areas or the poor integration of conservation across diverse sectoral policies. To address these challenges and help move toward a more effective and integrative conservation policy and practice, INSPIRE will develop a novel decision-support framework for prioritising management efforts across terrestrial, freshwater and marine realms while accounting for trade-offs in multifunctional land- and seascape use and changing environmental conditions. Building on the multidisciplinary experience of the partners participating, INSPIRE will tackle this challenge from a holistic point of view, integrating cross-realms dependencies in the spatial prioritisation of management efforts. INSPIRE also aims to integrate biodiversity conservation and other productive activities, aiming to reconcile conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity and ecosystem services, accounting for synergies and potential trade-offs among the multiplicity of objectives pursued. In this way, INSPIRE aims to contribute towards defining coherent and well-connected networks of management areas for biodiversity, not only restricted to protected areas, seeking for biodiversity conservation opportunities also in the matrix beyond protected areas. Finally, INSPIRE aims to address conservation of biodiversity under dynamic conditions, to explore proactive planning strategies towards a more resilient biodiversity conservation practise. INSPIRE will use three case studies to demonstrate how the proposed framework can be used to enhance decision-making, under different objectives and constraints: The Aegean Sea and its catchments (Greece-Turkey), the Tagus River catchment, estuary, and nearby marine area (Portugal-Spain) and the Neusiedl Lake and its contributing catchments (Austria-Hungary). With these case studies, INSPIRE will cover a broad spectrum of cross-realm and trans-national planning objectives and environmental challenges. Through early and regular engagement with national and international policy makers and stakeholders, INSPIRE will foster co-generation of knowledge and capacity building among stakeholders, to ensure that both the framework and results from the project fit for purpose and are informative for decision making in the context of the Biodiversity Strategy for 2030.
