Ecosystem services approach is dynamic evolving field that helps to better understand the importance of the nature for the human society. This approach is focused on the benefit identification resulting from biological variety of well-functioning ecosystems and simultaneously on methods of how to take these benefits into consideration in the decision-making processes of the market economy. Ecosystem services represent the frame for practical solutions of environmental problems that results from excessive use of natural resources.<\/span><\/p>\n

IEEP aims at the interdisciplinary linkage between the natural resource use and the providing of ecosystem services. Important part is the valuation and payments for ecosystem services. Emphasis is put on linking theoretical knowledge of economics, regional studies and law.<\/p>\n
