The Institute for Rural Development Research (IfLS) developed 'Foundations of the implementation of a national peatland protection strategy' as part of a R+D project. This work was incorporated into a discussion paper on the peatland protection strategy prepared by the Federal Ministry for Environmental Protection (BMU) and the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN). A public participation process was subsequently held on this paper.
The organisation and implementation of a stakeholder event in this context was the content of this project. The main contractor was the consulting agency Zebralog. The IfLS was involved as a subcontractor and contributed with its expertise on peatland protection to the conception, implementation and documentation of the workshop.
