So the point is to show the positive side of Natura 2000, to promote the existing positive examples or create and promote new ones, transform the seeming defeat (in the opinion of local decision makers) in success, even in the above mentioned Zawoja village. We want to give a boost and create for local decision makers "an alibi" to change the orientation for "pronature" one.
By the way everything is appropriately publicize the in the media to "appreciating" the local community, who decided to live in harmony with Nature in 2000, on the one hand and on the other hand, show all over Poland that it is possible not just put up with the neighborhood of the protected area, but use of its natural advantages for the promotion and local development. For example, in the municipality of Cisna, where establishment of of the refuge Natura 2000 Bieszczady (PLC 180001) interferes with plans to build a ski lift at Jaslo, we propose the creation of the park, where tourists can watch bears, wolves and lynxes living in a half-wild condition.
Thereby promote the the municipality and the entire the Bieszczady Mountains, as the sole land where all the European predators still have their refuges in the wild. However, in the commune of Zator, where allegedly a refuge of Lower Skawa Valley has locked local development we want to develop the project Ecomuseum Carp and night heron.The project will also overthrow the myth that Western European Natura 2000 areas ceased to develop, that is not realized investment there (because all were realized before creating of the refuge).
Through the implementation of the project we intend to show the tangible benefits linked to the creation of the Natura 2000 network are not empty words and futile statements.
The specific objectives of the project are:
• The promotion of Natura 2000, a European network of protected areas.
• The promotion of positive examples of the application values of the refuge Natura 2000 in the country and abroad, promotion of projects related to the establishment of Natura 2000 network.
• Initiation of new activities related to the use of natural assets of the refuge Natura 2000, use of the potential the various of the refuge of Natura 2000 and entire network for local ecodevelopment.
• To promote at the local level and to use financial mechanisms linked the functioning of the Natura 2000 network, in particular the LIFE + program and Priority V Infrastructure and Environment.
• Use of the applicant's experience in the implementation of Natura 2000 network at the local level.
