DOPPS is project partner of AdriaWet2000 – Adriatic Wetlands for Natura 2000. Within the project the workshop was held on 14th of February 2014 in Gorizia, Italy, led by Dr. James Hardcastle from IUCN Global Protected Areas Programme – Geneva, Switzerland. Programme of the workshop was as following: (1) economic and financial balance of protected areas, (2) financial instruments for management of protected areas, (3) self-financing and (4) best practice examples. Because Dr. Hardcastle is an experienced world known expert and we are establishing nature reserve as part of project LIVEDRAVA, our team working on this Life+ project also attended this workshop. Workshop was excellent and gave us some new ideas, which we are going to implement, especialy for preparation of »After-LIFE« conservation plan under project action F.4.
