Abstract
The aim of EURAPMON is to strengthen the contribution of research and monitoring for and with raptors in Europe to delivery of biodiversity, environmental and human health benefits, including maintenance and recovery of raptor populations and their habitats, and reduced chemicals threats to ecosystem and human health. Biodiversity loss and contamination have significant environmental, social and economic impacts. Consequently, environmental monitoring has a fundamental role to play in shaping our environmental, social and economic futures. As we cannot hope to monitor all components of the environment, we must seek to monitor those which can most usefully inform, at affordable cost. Raptors offer considerable promise in this respect and they are already the subject of considerable low-cost monitoring efforts in Europe.
