MISSION
Our mission is to assess and re-assess plant species based on field studies of rare plant populations; identify threatened ecosystems and assess risk severity in the Caucasus/one or more countries of the Caucasus.

Specialist Group work

In addition, the publication of assessments on The Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹ûÏÖ³¡Ö±²¥ Red List of Threatened Species will help in the conservation/ sustainable use of these species as well as associated habitats.

To inform conservation efforts, CP-RLA assesses species for the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹ûÏÖ³¡Ö±²¥ Red List of Threatened Species.

Learn about CP-RLA’s work and results in 2023.
