This LIFE Focus brochure gives a taste of the breadth of stakeholder groups atypical to nature conservation that LIFE projects have worked with up till now - partnerships with the military, with religious and cultural institutions, volunteer networks, research institutes, law enforcement officials, and enterprises of all types and sizes.
