This Interreg ADRION project was coordinated by the Agricultural Institute of Slovenia and Dr. Irena Bertoncelj and the intervention objective was to strengthen transnational and sectoral cooperation to improve ecological connectivity (EC) throughout Dinaric Mountains, connecting them with the Alps enabling long-term protection of biodiversity in view of current and future climatic changes.

To improve EC, eleven DINALPCONNECT partners from seven countries established a network of Pilot regions to strengthen transboundary linkages between Natura2000 sites and protected areas where EC was explored and consolidated. Joint action plans for improved EC of transboundary habitats in Pilot Regions were based on guidelines for agricultural and forestry practices protecting biodiversity.
