Project proposal was submitted under the 3rd call of the Baltic Sea Region Programme 2007-2013.
12 partners from 4 countries are involved in the project. Baltic Landscapes is expected to run during 3 years. The project Lead Partner is the Swedish Forest Agency.
Baltic Landscapes is a follow-up of Baltic Forest. The project’s focus of is on sustainable use and management of natural resources, emphasizing empowerment of societies to meet sustainable development challenges on the local level. To achieve progress along this line there is an evident need for neutral platforms to develop cooperation and common understanding between different local land use stakeholders and actors with different interests and visions. This also includes aspects of gender, minorities (i.e. Sámi people) and disabled groups (i.e. accessibility in the landscape).
The project will develop landscape-scale areas where sustainability problems are identified and solutions explored in close cooperation between the research community, local knowledge and experiences bearers, land users and other land base stakeholders, decision makers and policy developers.
