Conservation of wild plants is varied and complex with important activities on all scales: global, European, sub-regional, national and local.

Like building blocks, these activities must link together and complement each other in order to effectively implement the European Plant Conservation Strategy (EPCS) .

An excellent review of key European plant conservation efforts on the regional and subregional scale can be found on the Plant Talk website.

This article gives a concise summary of developments in Europe, including relevant programmes, research projects and initiatives. It also lists the most important institutions and networks active in the field of plant conservation in Europe.
