The nature of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) has always contributed to a good quality of life for people living in the territory of BiH. However, current global and local pressures have been increasingly adversely affecting the state of nature in BiH, and which in turn is impacting people’s quality of life.
The purpose of the Summary for Policy Makers document is to provide answers to key questions and convey key messages identified during the implementation of the Assessment of the state of nature and governance of natural resources in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is an analysis of the available scientific, technical, and traditional knowledge on the state of biological diversity, different types of nature’s contributions to people, trends in direct and indirect drivers, as well as scenarios and options for the sustainable management of nature in BiH.
