The declaration "Landscape Austria 2020+" presents several hypotheses on the development of the native landscape. Scenarios for sustainable solutions are to be evaluated through involvement on a broader scale. The Austrian landscape has an inestimable value for our country. Landscapes are habitats for people and animals, they offer support for eco-systems with a rich diversity of species and - an aspect that is often overlooked - they provide the basis for many economic sectors.

For the successful functioning of our landscape-based businesses these spaces must be kept healthy and intact. Exploitation of these resources hinders the sustainable development of the economy.
