Background:
The governance of transboundary biodiversity is a complex issue that is largely understudied in Europe.

This research project ('TRANSNATURE'), which is funded in the context of Biodiversa+, aims to fill this gap by addressing three research questions.

(1) To what extent and how do transboundary conservation areas involve different types of managing authorities and stakeholders ineffective governance mechanisms to enhance conservation? (2) To what extent and how does the stratification of different governance mechanisms in the same natural areas, such as World Heritage sites, European Groupings of Territorial Cooperation (EGTCs), national management authorities, subnational authorities and indigenous and community conserved areas, trigger processes that strengthen biodiversity conservation? Are there cooperation mechanisms or mechanisms of conflict resolution in place among the different actors involved? (3) To what extent can transboundary conservation areas contribute to stop ecological degradation by improving the prevention of both cross-border pollution and transnational wildlife crime in the EU? To respond to these questions, the project will analyze in detail and compare four case studies, amongst others, _Westerschelde (Netherlands/Belgium)_.

TRANSNATURE aims to policy-making at the international, European, national and conservation area levels. Policy impact is ensured through a specific stakeholder engagement plan. TRANSNATURE aims to identify innovative governance models for biodiversity protection and stakeholder engagement, distill common governance principles and highlight best practices in study areas that are more advanced concerning aspects of transnational, vertical and horizontal cooperation
