But it is also undergoing changes that generate considerable pressure on that biodiversity, including destruction of habitats and species linked to infrastructure development &#8211; particularly on the coast and in the valleys &#8211; fragmentation of ecosystems, pollution, and bio-contamination.<\/p>\n<p>Confronted with this situation, the PACA Region has launched the drawing up of a global strategy for biodiversity based around five axes: knowledge, protection and promotion, the integration of biodiversity into sectoral policies, regional dynamics, and the mobilisation of stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>The process, which is set to involve a very broad range of local stakeholders, kicked off with the first Assises R\u00e9gionales de la Biodiversit\u00e9, held in June and co-steered by the State and the PACA Region. A Regional Biodiversity Observatory is also being set up with the aim of providing local stakeholders with reliable and up-to-date information on biodiversity status and trends in the Region, together with the issues.<\/p>\n<p>This strategy, adopted by the Region\u2019s elected officials in December 2010, is timetabled over two years. The next step, after the summer holidays, will be a \u201cRegional Biodiversity Committee\u201d gathering together all the stakeholders\u2013 elected officials, State and local authorities, environmental associations, scientists, socio-professional stakeholders, and users to present their work in the summer of 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first Assises de la biodiversit\u00e9, held in June, launched the drawing up of the future \u201cGlobal Strategy for biodiversity in Provence-Alpes-C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur\u201d.
