Sustainable development


Natura 2000

The setting up of sustainable development includes maintaining the biological diversity needed for man's equilibrium.

From this viewpoint, the European Union has decided to create a network formed by zones in which Member States undertake to ensure the maintenance in a favourable state of preservation of the types of habitats and species concerned. With this aim in view, they can use statutory, administrative or contractual measures.
