Submission of the interim report: first project stage in the large-scale nature conservation project "Streams, moors and mountain meadows in the Thuringian Forest" completed


On April 25, 2023, the 2nd meeting of the Project Accompanying Working Group (PAG) on the large-scale nature conservation project "Streams, Moors and Mountain Meadows in the Thuringian Forest" took place in the Haus des Gastes in Ilmenau-Stützerbach. There, the IfLS project team presented the results of 16 expert interviews (acceptance analysis), which were conducted within the framework of the socio-economic study entrusted to the IfLS e.V.. The experts interviewed come from the fields of agriculture, forestry, water management, education, tourism, regional development and municipalities, as well as landscape conservation.

Furthermore, the interim report was submitted to Naturstiftung David (client) at the beginning of May. The contents of the report include the framework conditions of the project-related planning area and in particular the results of the above-mentioned expert interviews. Based on this information, a preliminary SWOT analysis was prepared, which will be supplemented and refined in the further course of the project.

Starting in autumn 2023, a survey of land managers and several stakeholder workshops will be conducted and recommendations for action will be developed for the project.
