First meeting of the working group on a decision support tool for the management of the genetic conservation units network
The working group on the management of genetic conservation units network met in Rome, Italy, on 25-28 October 2016.
Members of the working group discussed the practicalities of the decision tool and its three components: indicators that describe the state of the forest; verifiers - methods to measure the indicators and actions; activities that should be implemented to react to identified threats.
The tool will help managers responsible for the oversight of the network of genetic conservation units across Europe to take decisions to maintain and increase the effectiveness of the network. The group will continue developing the tool at a second meeting in early Autumn 2017.
