Overall objective of the project is to improve skills of regional and local authorities as well as other public bodies acting in fields of nature and environment management and capacities to deal with natural and man-made disasters such as a spread of invasive species. To solve this actual BY-LT cross-border problem project aims to promote legal and administrative cooperation between authorities and institutions of the bordering countries in the field of management of spread of alien invasive plant species (hereinafter - AIPS), to improve technical capacities and methods for eradication of AIPS, develop and implement training initiatives, strengthen capacities and increase involvement of local communities in public decision-making and implement processes in the field of preservation, control, management and eradication of AIPS. 4 GAs are foreseen to reach goals of the project: 1) management and coordination; 2) analysis of legal documents and inventory of alien invasive plant species; 3) control and eradication of selected AIPS; 4) public awareness and dissemination of project results. For the implementation of these activities partnership structure was created following certain criteria. LB having a long experience in management of international and cross-border projects will take responsibility of implementation and financial management of overall project. Grodno University (B4) will be the main institution of scientific expertise in BY implementing mainly inventory and mapping of AIPS and actively participating in other project activities. Partners from municipalities (B2 and B5) will work with public awareness of local communities in their territories as well as organize pilot demonstration of eradication of AIPS. Administrations of protected areas (B3 and B6) will increase their capacities in purchasing special equipment for eradication of AIPS in their territories ensuring continuation of the process after the end of the project.
