The Great European Mountain Corridor aims to create a vast unbroken ecological corridor connecting Portugal, the Cantabrian Mountains, the Pyrenees and the Massif Central to the Alps, and possibly eventually, the Balkans, along which natural ecological processes are allowed to flow creating a landscape rich in biodiversity for the benefit of nature and humanity.
The initiative for this comes from the great corridor Territories Foundation and Landscapes Caixa Catalunya in 2005 she completed a comprehensive study, with support from French and Spanish organizations. Currently, the project is supported by Resolution No. 4061 IUCN "The great ecological connector: Cantabrian Mountains - Pyrenees - Massif Central - Western Alps", adopted by the World Conservation Congress in Barcelona in 2008, and by the statement "Planes de son" end of the International Congress on ecological corridors mountain, with the support of the Council of Europe, and Eurosite Europarc and World Commission on Protected IUCN (thematic mountain) areas. The project would also create synergies with other European initiatives such as the Green Belt in Eastern Europe, which reaches the extreme south of the Carpathians.
