Baltic Ecoregion Action Plan Print
ELF participates in all the projects of the national branches of WWF and partner organizations in the Baltic Sea countries, including the project BEAP (Baltic Ecoregion Action Plan).

The Baltic Ecoregion Action Plan (BEAP) is a manifold project that aims to get closer to entire association of factors that influence the sea. The chief goal is to protect and, if possible, to regenerate the natural diversity of the Baltic Sea in its full capacity.

Due to the poor condition of the sea, the sphere of the Baltic Sea protection is being developed also within the framework of the Convention on the Protection of the Marine Environment of the Baltic Sea Area (HELCOM). Partners of BEAP are supporting HELCOM’s efforts in this direction through know-how and supporting activities. Since the efficiency of nature conservation depends on knowing the real situation, we constantly gather information about the situation of the Baltic Sea and monitor the decisions and suggestions of local authorities that could influence the future and well-being of the sea.

Maritime issues know no state boundaries, so ELF is working side by side with other environmental organizations in states at the Baltic Sea. We are trying to find opportunities to protect the species of the sea and support the efforts aimed to avoid major maritime disasters and lessen the load of pollution.
