Improved forest management
Pre-cautionary measures
Restoration of the forests, damaged by forest fires or other natural disasters, using native tree species, where possible (natural regeneration should be prioritized)
Creating a system of “protecting forest strips”
Application of climate change oriented forest research results in the renewal of forests
Implementation of measures to protect and / or enhance biodiversity (for example restore swamps and alluvial forests; natural forest reserves)
Increasing the forest cover with the aim to contribute to climate change mitigation and increasing the biodiversity
Strengthening of the natural regeneration of natural forests and their sustainable use
Maintenance of non-closed canopy in the forest steppe zone
The creation of habitat networks
