• shared supervision based on collaborative research
• support and endorsement by an international advisory committee
• learning by contrasts, multi-experience and multi-location
• different countries, different problems, different solutions
• network of developed, developing and transformation countries
• practical problem solving at a local, regional and global scale
• holistic understanding of environmental management

The main rationale of the programme is learning by contrasts between countries and circumstances to meet contemporary demands of local, regional and global nature conservation issues
