Michael Jungmeier (Austria)

"Working in and for Protected Areas is one of the most interesting, challenging and rewarding responsibilities you can have. After some 15 years of planning and consultancy work for Protected Areas, I am very proud to be in charge of developing and running this MSc programme with considerable support from the experts on the Advisory Board and an international team of lecturers. We want to present a comprehensive course that offers a proper and efficient development of European Protected Areas. I find this MSc programme to be a unique platform for exchanging experiences. I am looking forward to meeting the participants from different Protected Areas, representing some of the most beautiful and precious regions on the continent."
