Στην τελική ευθεία βρίσκονται οι προετοιμασίες του συνεδρίου «Προστατεύοντας ενδιαιτήματα και κινδυνεύοντα είδη στην Ευρώπη, μέσω της αντιμετώπισης του περιβαλλοντικού εγκλήματος», το οποίο θα πραγματοποιηθεί στο Ηράκλειο, στην Έκθεση του Μουσείου Φυσικής Ιστορίας Κρήτης από τις 22 έως τις 25 Οκτωβρίου 2018.

Το συνέδριο συνδιοργανώνεται από το έργο LIFE Natura Themis, το Ευρωπαϊκό Δίκτυο Εισαγγελέων Περιβάλλοντος (ΕΝΡΕ), την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση Δικτύων για την Εφαρμογή και Ενδυνάμωση του Περιβαλλοντικού Δικαίου (IMPEL) και το έργο LIFE Reason For Hope, με στόχο τη δικτύωση μεταξύ των φορέων-προγραμμάτων, την ανταλλαγή εμπειριών-απόψεων και τη βελτίωση της επιστημονικής γνώσης γύρω από θέματα της περιβαλλοντικής νομοθεσίας όπως παραγωγή νομοθετημάτων, αποτελεσματικότητα δίωξης και εκδίκασης, εργαλεία εφαρμογής, τρόποι βελτίωσης κ.ά.

Η προστασία των ειδών και των ενδιαιτημάτων είναι βασικοί στόχοι για καθέναν από τους προαναφερόμενους φορείς, οι οποίοι εστιάζουν τις δράσεις προστασίας κυρίως μέσω της αντιμετώπισης του περιβαλλοντικού εγκλήματος. Στις εργασίες της συνάντησης συμμετέχει ένα ευρύ φάσμα ειδικών που εμπλέκονται σε αυτό το πεδίο, από εκπροσώπους διεθνών οργανισμών που συζητούν τις παγκόσμιες προκλήσεις που αντιμετωπίζουμε όλοι μας, εθνικούς περιβαλλοντικούς εμπειρογνώμονες, γενικούς εισαγγελείς, κορυφαίους ακαδημαϊκούς και περιφερειακούς ειδικούς, ενωμένους στη δέσμευσή τους για βελτίωση του περιβάλλοντος.

Κατά τη διάρκεια της εκδήλωσης θα πραγματοποιηθούν κλειστές συνεδρίες από ευρωπαϊκές ομάδες που εργάζονται πάνω σε εξειδικευμένα θέματα περιβαλλοντικής προστασίας όπως ρύπανση υδάτων, ρύπανση εδάφους, εγκλήματα κατά της άγριας ζωής, καινοτόμες τεχνολογίες αντιμετώπισης του περιβαλλοντικού εγκλήματος, ειδικές νομικές περιπτώσεις περιβαλλοντικών εγκλημάτων, κ.ά.

Το Πανεπιστήμιο Κρήτης-Μουσείο Φυσικής Ιστορίας Κρήτης εκτός της φιλοξενίας των συνέδρων, θα παρουσιάσει επίσης τις δράσεις και τα μέχρι στιγμής αποτελέσματα του έργου LIFE Natura Themis, με εκπροσώπηση όλων των εταίρων του προγράμματος όπως επίσης και δύο μελών της Επιτροπής Εμπειρογνωμόνων που στηρίζουν το έργο. Σύνοψη των συμπερασμάτων και των αποτελεσμάτων της συνάντησης θα αναρτηθούν σε επόμενη δημοσίευση.
