Support and follow up to the Romanian Nature Conservation IRI

Project description and aims

In 2014, the first ‘green’ IRI was executed in Romania. Best practice and opportunities for development were identified. During the course of the IRI, the Romanian National Environmental Guard (NEG) pointed out that certain results of the IRI were cogent in their analysis and that further work should be carried out to help them implement the results. The NEG therefore requested an exchange of knowledge and expertise focusing on, for example, the organisation of environmental and nature protection agencies: should they be separated or merged?

This follow-up project aims to continue facilitating the exchange of information and provide collegial help to improve the organisation and execution of EU nature conservation legislation requirements.
