Landscape Fire Management Western Balkans
Landscape Fire Management in the Western Balkans Six aims to increase resilience of WB6 forests and landscapes against fires to benefit the people who depend on these landscapes for their livelihoods and socioeconomic development. The project will achieve this objective through establishing a network-like regional cooperation in the Western Balkans Six that fosters knowledge exchange, policy dialogue and concerted action on LFM in the involved Western Balkans Six. Through central focal points in all WB6 the project will facilitate domestic-level networks of LFM stakeholders, identify local core regions with high fire risks, and connect them with the RFMC, the regional focal point and main driver of regional cooperation and exchange. The GFMC will mobilise its network of centers, seek synergies with international/multilateral stakeholders in the region and beyond, and bring them together to achieve the objective.
