Daniel MARC

My teaching service is carried out across the different programmes of the Department of Geography, Planning and Environment at the Bachelor’s (Year 3) and Master’s levels (Years 1 and 2), primarily within the GAED Master’s programme (TRENT and GEMO tracks), and also within the APTER, VIHATE and Rural Territories programmes.
The courses focus on the environment and its consideration in connection with my research themes.

My teaching and research activity focuses on biodiversity management (management plans, prioritisation of issues, naturalist knowledge and population biology). It also deals with supporting and integrating this biodiversity within territories, notably by contributing to the development and implementation of public policies in favour of the environment.

My field of study is biodiversity and its operational management in protected or contractualised areas, such as ecological management, compensatory measures under the Avoid‑Reduce‑Compensate Support and Monitor sequence, the green and blue infrastructure, support for integrating nature into planning documents, policies for threatened species, the development of European projects, biodiversity observatories, the Protected Areas Strategy, ZNIEFF inventories or the National Inventory of Natural Heritage…

The way of approaching these elements is intended to be multidisciplinary within the limits of my understanding and involves biology, political science, taxonomy, sociology, and spatial planning, within an approach that falls within the field of Conservation Geography.
