Infra Eco Network Europe (IENE) re-established
IENE in short : - is non-profit, non-governmental, non-political, |
Infra Eco Network Europe (IENE), established in 1996, is a European network of authorities, institutes and experts involved in the phenomena of habitat fragmentation caused by the construction and use of linear transport infrastructure, especially roads, railways and canals (waterways). It addresses decision makers, planners and researchers as well as the public, by providing an international and interdisciplinary arena to encourage and enable cross-boundary cooperation in research, mitigation and planning.
The organization stimulates mutual cooperation among its members and support the exchange of knowledge between the sectors of environment and transport infrastructure; both on a national and on an international level. IENE combines and disseminates international research results, practical knowledge and experiences in order to advance beneficiary environmental effects and reduce detrimental impacts caused by the construction, use and maintenance of linear transportation infrastructure. In this context, the IENE was the applicant of the Cost 341 - project 'Habitat Fragmentation due to Transportation Infrastructure', an action in the framework of the COST (Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical research) program of the European Community.
