Abstract

The long-term goal towards which the project will contribute is that energy sector operations in Russia have improved capacity to minimize their adverse impacts on biodiversity so that the conservation prospects of the affected ecosystems are greatly improved. The immediate objective of the project is to mainstream biodiversity conservation priorities into Russian energy sector development policies and into the operations of energy production sectors through pilot activities in 6 demonstration areas of the country.
