Central Europe Biodiversity Innovative Communities (Central-BIC)

Central Europe faces significant biodiversity loss due to unsustainable ecosystem management. The Central-BIC project addresses this challenge by developing innovative tools and methodologies to support rural communities in transitioning towards sustainable ecosystem practices.​

The project actively involves producers and consumers in testing tailored solutions across three key supply chains: livestock, agriculture, and integrated tourism. A cornerstone of Central-BIC is the establishment of a network of Biodiversity Stewardship Communities (BSCs), which promote replicable best practices for habitat protection.​

On April 15, 2025, Regione Liguria and ECECE held an online technical meeting in preparation for the upcoming project gathering scheduled for May 6 in Kraków.​
