BIO RESERVE - Implementácia Agendy 2030 prostredníctvom biosférických rezervácií
Implementation of Agenda 2030 through biosphere reserves
Program: SRDA
Project leader: Mgr. Piscová Veronika, PhD.
Annotation: The aim of the project is to create a proposal for a sustainable institutional, financial and legislative model ofbiosphere reserves in the Slovak Republic and the fundamental framework of their strategic development based onanalysis of territorial potential in the context of meeting the objectives of Agenda 2030, resilience theory, foreignexperience and examples of good practice. The model will reflect the outputs of the analysis of all components ofthe potential of four Slovak biosphere reserves in the context of the resilience theory and goals of Agenda 2030. Itwill develop to the individual business model of each biosphere reserve. It will also include the methodology ofcreating development documents for biosphere reserves (development strategy, action plan and marketingcommunication strategy) all four biosphere reserves, taking into account the latest trends in spatial development,promoting the resilience of the areas studied and preserving their exceptional value on a global scale.The project will also include activities aimed at raising awareness among professionals and the general publicabout the issue, popularizing the project results and exchanging knowledge, ideas and experience with actors fromthe public, private and non-profit sectors in the form of workshops, conferences, public debates, lectures,conference papers and high quality research outputs.

Diverzita lúčnych a pasienkových biotopov Slovenska po dvoch dekádach v Európskej únii
Diversity of grassland habitats in Slovakia after two decades in the EU
Program: VEGA
Project leader: Ing. Špulerová Jana, PhD.
Annotation: The landuse changes dynamicaly in time and these changes reflect in the vegetation composition and structure. The changes in the agricultural landscape are significantly influenced by the agricultural subsidiesreceived in Slovakia since 2004 when the country joined the European Union. The aim of the project is to asses the changes in the floristic composition and functional traits of the grassland habitats of European and national importance using the resampling of phytosociologicalrelevés. Based on the results we will asses the effectiveness and impact of agricultural subsidies on recent state of the studied habitats. At the same time, we will continue testing the influence of various management techniques in the permanent plots on composition of grassland vegetation. The results of our research may be used by the State Conservancy Agency and will serve as a basis for optimisation of management measures for maintaining the favourable condition of grassland habitats of European and national importance.
