GRK 642: Valuation and Management of Biodiversity. Implementation of Nature Conservation Strategies within the Framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity

跨学科研究培训小组的目标是查明执行生物多样性条约的问题和前景。研究领域集中在条约第8条提到的保护领域。主要出发点是所谓的“利益调和”问题，即维持生物多样性的成本和利益分配不均的现象。因此，有必要制定相应的文书，以提供公正的补偿。这种困境定义了研究培训小组的跨学科问题，并意味着其主要的社会科学方向。研究计划在很大程度上是针对上述复杂主题的需求而量身定制的。除了扩大学生的跨学科能力，特别重要的是要培养跨学科工作的科学和政治相关的可持续发展领域的基本。条约文本中关于教育这一领域专家的承诺因此得到履行。除了在研究培训组内的教学证明形式，重点将放在跨学科解决问题的支持和培训的元素。

The goal of the interdisciplinary research training group is to identify the problems and perspectives of implementation of the biodiversity treaty. The field of research concentrates on areas of conservancy noted in Art. 8 of the treaty. The main starting point is the so-called "reconciliation of interests" problem describing the phenomenon that costs and benefits for maintaining biodiversity are distributed unequally. Thus, it is necessary for the respective instruments to be developed for just compensation. This dilemma defines the interdisciplinary problem for the research training group and implies its primarily social science orientation.The program of study is tailored to a large degree to the demands of the above mentioned complex of topics. In addition to expanding the intradisciplinary competence of the students, it is especially important to foster the essential to work interdisciplinarily in the scientific and politically relevant area of sustainable development. The commitment in the treaty's text to educate experts in this area is thus fulfilled. Besides the proven forms of instruction within the research training group, emphasis will be placed on elements in which interdisciplinary problem solving is supported and trained.
