Case Study Matrix Report of UNWIRE (Use Nationally of Wild Resources across Europe)
An appendix to the GEM-CON-BIO governance matrix report was prepared for UNWIRE, as this case study differed from studies of single areas or small groups because it collected data on six activities across 27 EU states. The extensive, standardised data could therefore be used to create a stand-alone matrix for simple correlative and multivariate analyses of how governance and management types related to trends in resources, resource users and biotopes.

The GEM-CON-BIO governance matrix
One of the outcomes of the GEM-CON-BIO project is the building up of a Governance matrix linking "governance types and critical ecosystem management characteristics".

Synthesis of case studies
The results of the case studies have been synthesized in a coherent document with the following objectives:
a) to test the validity of the analytical framework developed as a useful research tool to carry out case studies to identify the most important factors of governance and ecosystem management and their relationships with biodiversity conservation.
b) to see if the use of the analytical framework can facilitate the comparison and integration of outcomes among case studies results, so to enhance the possibility to identify existing relationships between factors of governance, ecosystem management and biodiversity conservation

Reports on case studies
The present report forms the main research part of the GEM-CON-BIO project, which is the 29 case studies from the EU and other third countries plus a special Pan-European case study (UNWIRE). The deliverable consists of an extensive summary for each case study due to reasons of space, as most case studies reports are more than 70 pages.

Report On Governance Types And Ecosystem Management Characteristics
This report represents the first technical deliverables from the GEM-CON-BIO project.
Originally when the project was being developed two separate studies were foreseen.
These studies would review the state of ecosystems in Europe and present the role of
governance in biodiversity conservation. However as the project has been implemented,
it has become clear that the innovative approach of GEM-CON-BIO is that it takes an
integrated approach to the role of governance and ecosystem management for biodiversity.
The project recognises that only through a study of the processes and interactions
involved in the management of our ecosystems can be hope to gain insight into the future
tools that will foster the sustainable use of natural resources. Thus with this approach
in mind the authors decided to combine their efforts. Andrew Terry from the World
Conservation Union (IUCN) worked on the text concerning the state of European ecosystems,
while Thomas Hahn and Victor Galaz both of Centre of Transdisciplinary Environmental
Research of Stockholm University carried out the review of governance structures.
The authors came together to develop the analytical framework presented later in the
report. It is this integrated framework that is the key output of this report as it forms
the basis for further study within the project. Therefore within this document we present
combined deliverables D3.2 on ecosystem management and D2.2 on governance.
