Innovations in Nature Conservation
This course focuses on key environmental topics related to nature conservation and restoration in the context of the Green Deal and sustainable development. Participants will be introduced to current development concepts, such as the European Green Deal, and its implications for contemporary biodiversity conservation challenges, as well as the tools used in modern nature protection. The „Innovations in Nature Conservation“ course offers a broad perspective, covering topics from global biodiversity conservation challenges to their understanding as part of applied ecology. It also facilitates the sharing of concrete experiences in ecosystem conservation and restoration in the Czech Republic, including the use of legislative and practical tools for biodiversity conservation.
The course is conducted over two semesters in the form of lectures and excursions. Its goal is to familiarize participants with the fundamental concepts of sustainable development and the Green Deal in the context of nature and landscape conservation.
The course develops knowledge and skills in the following areas:
● Sustainable development and the Green Deal
● Nature protection and restoration
● Biodiversity threats in the context of global change
