Description of the research topic:
Over the past decade, more and more attention has been given to global and regional levels as part of environmental security as an issue for the growth of various environmental hazards and the depletion of environmental resources (contaminated water resources, water and drinking water shortages, droughts, desertification, destruction of animal life, reduction of natural resources and fossil fuels, the decline in cultivated land).The strategic trends that shape the increasingly important future, the impact of direct and indirect climate change on society and the environment, often beyond the country’s administrative boundaries, require special professional knowledge and cooperation. In analyzing a geographic area - in the light of the complex understanding of security - we cannot ignore environmental factors, such as the relationship between the environment and security, and the potential for various cross-border environmental security hazards in the geographic regions in relation to the geographic conditions (e.g. geological, meteorological, hydrological).
Research objectives:
After examining the identified research problem (investigation of the relationship between environment and security, investigation of the impacts of environmental hazards and problems, examination of the depletion of environmental resources, exploration of the environmental security threats and the relationships of physical geographical factors in each geographic region, investigation of environmental hazards (events) caused by cross-border natural and human activities) making proposals for the adaptation of regional and international experiences, “good practices”, and for the interpretation of the complexity of environmental security in specific geographic areas.
Research methods:
• Investigation of the related literature,
• Investigation of regional, international experience, adaptation of “good practices”,
• Research and development of databases and other electronic support sources,
• Research of the complexity of environmental security in specific geographic areas,
• Research and development of databases and geoinformational support.
Planned new scientific results to be achieved:
As a result of research activity: 1. Investigation of actual problems of environmental security 2. Investigation of the impacts of environmental change in each geographic region and the need for cross-border regional cooperation, 3. Future trends, defining development directions,4. The influence of local, regional, global geographic factors on environmental security and its correlation with the geopolitical interests of nation-state, regional and alliances.
