摘要

EUROPARC Conference is the largest gathering of park professionals in Europe. Every year the EUROPARC Federation members, partners and friends meet to discuss and debate the importance of protected areas and to share news, experiences and ideas. The programme of the EUROPARC Conference 2016 was designed to explore in many different ways the topic We are parks! and examine the role of the people in parks – from fund raising to governance models. The set-up of the conference offered short 2-hour sessions that allowed exploring some detailed aspects of the governance and management of parks. In these sessions inputs from selected case studies were followed by the opportunity to discuss current issues, challenges and opportunities on the selected topics.
