CURRENT Coproductions: FORESTS
IN THE SOUTH OF EUROPE - EUROSILVASUR
Short Description
This project was initiated by two project heads
for the PACTE and RECITE programmes of DG XVI of the European Commission
in January 95. Co-produced with France 3 Aquitaine, it is a magazine
of discovery and innovation dealing not only with rural, territorial
or ecological aspects but also with social, environmental and economical
development.
There are about 10 million hectares of forests along the Atlantic
Coast from the region Aquitaine to Portugal inhabited by a multitude
of different species.
The forest has many functions ranging from the production of wood
or resin, the protection aspect (regulation of climate, preservation
of the ground, etc..) to a social function (protection of the landscape,
tourism) and economical development (creation of jobs, exploitation
of natural resources).

Latest Development
Forest in Europe has received the approval for a support of the
European Commission. For the first time, the countries of Southern
Europe were to be considered – Portugal, Spain and France - but
a second stage with other countries may be considered
The first magazine may be finished before the end of 2001 with
the first topics on „Men and the Forests“ ; it is not a scientific
approach of the forest, but a program with personal stories on the
relations between people and their forest.
