My expertise / skills :	My research interests are focused on ecosytem services provided by different types of land use and land use changes (https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Agnieszka_Nowak11).
Disciplines I am working on :	Demography Geosciences Landscape ecology Physical Geography Spatial planning and urban development
Keywords :	land use, human well-being, biodiversity, landscape mosaic, perception, land abandonment
Project description :	We’d like to establish a partnership for the research on the influence of the land use changes, especially changes in semi-natural land use type (i.e., meadows, pastures, orchads, agro-silvo-pastoral systems) as well as land mosaic, and consequently biodiversity, on human well-being (i.e., ecosystem services conditioning human well-being). We’re planning to apply for founding within the BiodivERsA project (http://www.biodiversa.org/1481). Within the frame of the project we’d like to work out a multidisciplinary approach. The project aims to compare the level of the biodiversity, character of the biodiversity loss, its drivers and effects on human well-being as well as perception of people towards these changes between regions. We’d like to put a special focus on the perception of land abandonment resulting in the loss of biodiversity, and consequently, on the relation between biodiversity and human well-being. Our project will concern landscape level.
