A tool for monitoring and tracking advisory activities

This tool can be to put in use by innovation support services providers directly through the excel format in annex III or maybe through an app for mobile/computer. The last could help prompt collection of data at field level and interconnection with other datasets (e.g., monitoring systems of CAP Strategic plans or of advisory organizations), through adding relevant information to monitoring and evaluation systems of advisory services. It is aimed both at individual and organized/associated advisors and policy makers. Advisors could use it for keeping track of the outputs of their advisory activities in the domain of interactive support services, evaluate the effects at end-user level and connect them to their competences and knowledge gaps in the specific field. The tool allows envisaging expected categories of outputs/results in relation to the predefined activities and business processes and this makes it being utilizable as a predictive tool to help decision making along the innovation spiral.

Spiritual forests and forest kindergartens

Document

This factsheet explores how managing forests to be used as spiritual forests and forest kindergartens could benefit both the forest and the forest owner. The core impact of the case study is to raise awareness of the importance of cultural ecosystem services and to motivate forest actors to manage forests appropriately.

Forests for water in Catalonia

Document

This innovation case is strengthening the link between forests and water with the overall aim of diversifying financing sources for forest management by integrating ecosystem service provision into the economic balance sheet. Work includes integration in the Urban Masterplan for the Rialb Reservoir where different local stakeholders (economic, tourism, water and others) are already working together. The aim is for written recognition in a legal document of the role of forestry in water and landscape conservation, and the recognition of forestry as a potentially relevant economic activity in the area that can be promoted along with tourism. The innovation action also works with the public Segre-Rialb Consortium to assess the suitability of a payment for ecosystem services scheme in relation to water in the area.

Understanding the health functions of peri-urban forests in protected areas and payment for ecosystem services

Document

This innovation action will provide a unique and innovative way of evaluating health as a component of forest ecosystem services. The goal is to develop several scenarios for payments of those services, as well as empower future management of the protected area. It may also allow some programmes to be launched in cooperation with health institutions on activities related to human health and rehabilitation. In parallel, the case will raise public awareness about forest ecosystem services in order to increase uptake, and so that all stakeholders and park visitors recognise the benefits of forests for their health.
