The Nature Directives Fitness Check

Context

In 2014, the Commission launched the Fitness Check of the EU Birds and Habitats Directive.  This was launched as part of the REFIT Programme.  

The Commission evaluation led to the development of the Action Plan for nature, people and the economy, to improve the Directives 'implementation and boost their contribution towards reaching the EU's biodiversity targets for 2020'. 

ENCA Activities

ENCA Members have engaged with the European Commission to discuss ENCA's support to delivery of the Action Plan for nature, people and economy.
