Develop, discuss and evaluate PA management recommendations
Recommendations from the preparatory steps of the Convention-Check are given to the management agency, then are evaluated after an appropriate period of time, to assess their impact and largely address management effectiveness. Steps in this building block include assessing and quantifying the number of changes of measures/activities on management, administrative and legislative levels, assessing the causality between recommendations and evaluating the quantified changes in a qualitative way. Recommendations are provided to administrative and legislative bodies as well as to the PA in particular. Recommendations concern changes in legislation, administrative regulations as well as in particular in practical management decisions. One recommendation was for example to work on bats and now these species are among the flagship species of the park.
Working closely with relevant organizations and societies such as the Thaya Valley National Park Society offers a productive way to assess relevant changes.
