Case Studies

As part of the CoCo project, we are conducting case studies across 12 European countries to explore the complex dynamics between pastoralism and wildlife management. 

The project spans France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden. In each of these countries, we gather  insights from pastoralists, hunters, and landowners through interviews and field visits. By examining these real-life settings and integrating scientific knowledge with traditional practices and personal experience, we aim to find practical solutions that harmonise wildlife and pastoral management.
