Planta Europa
Planta Europa is a network of independent organisations, non-governmental and governmental, working together to conserve European wild plants and fungi. It brings together more than 70 member organisations from 37 European countries.
The Planta Europa Network was established in 1995 as a result of a conference discussing pan-European cooperation for plant conservation. Since then, Planta Europa has held a conference every three years. At these conferences, botanists and plant conservationists from countries across Europe gather to discuss the directions and joint goals for plant conservation.
At the 2007 PE Conference in Romania, members of Planta Europa worked together towards producing a new European Plant Conservation Strategy, to be published in 2008.
The secretariat for Planta Europa is based in The Hague, The Netherlands.
