This report outlines a strategic framework designed to preserve and enhance the natural heritage and biodiversity of Brittany, recognising the region’s unique environmental and cultural identity. With its extensive coastline, diverse landscapes, and rich ecosystems, Brittany faces pressures from human activities such as agriculture, tourism, and marine exploitation. These activities have increasingly threatened the region’s ecological balance, prompting a need for coordinated preservation efforts.
The framework underscores Brittany’s commitment to aligning with national and international biodiversity conservation goals. It emphasises the importance of sustainable management practices that not only protect the environment but also support local economies and communities. The strategy calls for collaborative efforts among regional stakeholders, including local governments, scientific institutions, and civil society organisations, to address the challenges posed by environmental degradation and biodiversity loss.
A key aspect of the initiative is the creation of a regional natural heritage and biodiversity scheme, which serves as a reference point for coordinated actions across Brittany. The framework promotes a comprehensive approach that integrates the preservation of natural habitats with the enhancement of local cultural identities and economic activities.
The text concludes by highlighting the urgency of addressing the environmental challenges facing Brittany and the collective responsibility to safeguard these natural assets for future generations. Through this strategic approach, Brittany aims to ensure that its rich biodiversity continues to thrive while supporting sustainable development and enhancing the region’s attractiveness and economy.
