The Community Ecology & Conservation is particularly active on the study of different agroecosystems and farming practices, with special attention to the main effects on wildlife conservation. In 2022 the team won a new GACR project in collaboration with the Charles University. The project title is “Towards the understanding of processes responsible for farmland biodiversity loss: insights from Central European birds” - GAČR (# 23-07103S). This project offers the possibility to continue and improve the investigations focused on the previous project “Developing Tools to Support Farmland Bird Conservation in the EU” - European Tender Reference: ENV/2020/OP/0003. Both projects constitute an important framework in agroecology, and are just a piece of a largest mosaic of international collaborations with different European countries as Spain, France, Italy, etc.
